Re: Out with the old and in with the new. Wow, a reporter with a story already slanted the way they want, and then using selected quotes to make their point. Will wonders never cease.
That is std operating procedure for the press. I suspect we rarely get unvarnished facts and mostly get the slant the reporter/editor is looking for.

1 edit | Crap Journalism To learn about the laying sacks of crap our news services are one only has to look at the coverage of the war in Iraq. When is the last time you have heard about the roads, schools, hospitals, outpatient clinics, etc, that our troops in Iraq have built, or how the Iraqi people really think about al Ameriki tribe, the American Tribe. You instantly hear about so called civilian deaths at the hands of American soldiers. The press gloats over the deaths of American service men and women, but we never hear the fact terrorists in Iraq are being killed by the score, and you never hear about the utter evil of al Qaeda such as this;
"At first, he said, they [Al Qaeda] would only target Shia, but over time the new al Qaeda directed attacks against Sunni, and then anyone who thought differently. The official reported that on a couple of occasions in Baqubah, al Qaeda invited to lunch families they wanted to convert to their way of thinking. In each instance, the family had a boy, he said, who was about 11 years old. As LT David Wallach interpreted the man’s words, I saw Wallach go blank and silent. He stopped interpreting for a moment. I asked Wallach, “What did he say?” Wallach said that at these luncheons, the families were sat down to eat. And then their boy was brought in with his mouth stuffed. The boy had been baked. Al Qaeda served the boy to his family."

If our press will slant the news from Iraq to make our Soldiers look like the NAZI SS, and Al Qaeda as freedom fighters what chance does any thing else have to be reported truthfully.

It would be good to keep the bastard under the bullshit list.
