John,


I prefer folks committed to getting the story right.


I think it appears to you this way because you align to some degree with the stories that get covered. There are often times when the NYT and the WP seem to me to be making the news in order to be politcally instrumental. I can see it because I usually disagree with thier POV. I suspect the same is true when you read the washington times.

You seem to be implying that only rightie people would consider practising political instrumentality. Are you suggesting that leftie people in the media operate at a morally higher level? This would become a self-confirming opinion if help very long.

Paul
