You are right Bobby Tony, few reporters have the intellect or the energy to discover "who, what, when, where, why and how" unless they are going after a Republican, and Lord knows: When was the last a so-called journalist do enough research to uncover anything important, even if it is against a Republican.

I was with you Tom, up until the 4th and 5th paragraph, where I think you may have confused reporters with commentators. It is obvious to any "reasonable person" (forgive me) that those mentioned are biased. I guess you felt you just had to include Trump in your analysis.
I agree that "the bedrock foundation of journalism has always been to uncover the "who, what, when, where, why and how" of a story. However, the first four words are facts and the last two words are opinion or conjecture. It is the mixing of the facts and opinions that concerns me. Journalism has never been a pristine profession; an all efforts to appear to be are disingenuous at best. That is the purpose of the 1st amendment. My concern is that we have now reached the point where we argue over the facts and rely on Snopes, FactCheck, PolitiFact and others to tell us the nuance of what should be easily discernible truth. I have bookmarked your No Spin site and look forward to the discussions there. (And I honestly mean no sarcasm by that.) FACT: The sun rose in Washington, NC at 6:33:03 AM sunrise-sunset.org |
Tom, the Democrat media is a sham, and has only one purpose to put Democrats in office, and the vast majority of Americans know this.
Yes, you don't need to "defend the media", but I would suggest you running from it before it taints you any more than it already has. |
