perfect example of writers trying to make dead lines for stories and do not care about facts.

most of the papers and tv news stations no longer have any indepth reporting. Assignments are given and often told what to write. they fill in the blanks.

I think that newspapers should have warnings
just like prescription drugs.

For example:

Warning: All "news" reports are really editorials.

It's one thing to have an op-ed page and another
to infuse all alleged "news" story with a
biased POV.

Doesn't matter whether the POV is left, right,
republican, democrat, etc.

That's why I'm a big advocate of paying attention
to the source of every article.

Everyone has an ax to grind these days
and there's really no such thing as "news."

The NY Times is among the worst offenders.
