Let me rewrite that for clarification:
Most of the information is wrong and some of it is wrong on purpose, Schieffer said. It is our job
Much more to the truth.
You beat me to the clarification punch! LOL! That’s also the way I read it the first time through...
“tell people what we think is relevant in what they need to know. That is the job of the journalist”
Sorry Bob, but the people don’t need your insight and commentary.
you saw that too ... was about to post your information and nearly a same remark .... It is our job ... schieffer said ... all the lies that matter one must tune to See BS
So Mrs. Schieffer’s little bobby thinks that it is HIS job to tell us what the news is and what we should think about it? That’s flippin’ weird.
Another liberal whose expiration date has long since expired.
Dan. Rather.
E-mails show White House tried to muzzle Sharyl Attkisson
"Im also calling Sharryls editor and reaching out to Schieffer. Shes out of control."
It is our job, I think, in mainstream journalism to try to cut through this mall of information and tell people what we think is relevant in what they need to know.
Sanctimonious liberal prick.
Most of the information is wrong and some of it is wrong on purpose, Schieffer said. It is our job, I think, in mainstream journalism to try to cut through this mall of information and tell people what we think is relevant in what they need to know. That is the job of the journalist and I have to say its harder and harder.
In other words, we want to censor the information to support our world view and tell everyone else that they should see things the same way.
Possibly one of the few moment of truth from the POS, admitting they filter news to their liking.
what schieffer failed to tell Americans is he was paid well to not report the news ... make it up though schieffer and SeeBS will report ... Liars are paid well by those in d.c. and those that want to go to d.c. especially if democrats.
I read The Left-Leaning Antenna: political bias in television in the early 70s. They have always been lying commie hacks only the difference is that now more folks are recognizing it.
So much for any pretense of “who, what, when, where, why and how.”
I dont know where most people get their news anymore, because the traditional modern news outlets have gone the way of the buggy whip. Morning news is nothing but a two hour commercial for tonights programming or a new movie.
The cable stations are simply unwatchable—with Fox fawning over someone buy a Vet a cake (honorable, but not news) or be absolutely horrified by something Obama did. CNN is just as bad, but on the opposite side of the sliding scale.
The evening news is horrible. Human interest stories have taken the place of news.
Finally, the interjection of the drama and editorial comments by reporters is simply sickening. Of course, Shep the drama queen is the worst at this.
Just report what is going on.
It sickens me to say it, but perhaps the most unbiased news report I’ve seen lately is Al Jezzera America. Probably because they simply hate all things American.
Mr. Schieffer lives on a mental Elysium.
It’s not the News Reports, it’s Who decides what News to Report.
