The Post, like most msm, will take a few facts and rewrite the story to confirm what they want to present. Most likely, it is totally different that what actually happened. It saddens me that there is no journalistic ethics any longer. The NYT, The Post, The LAT and the rest, including the fake cable channels, have decided that their duty is to sway public opinion, not to inform. Therefore, they are no more legitimate than the National Inquirer. We would be better off if we never believed a word that they say. Instead, write an outline of each story and boil it down to the facts (which are usually manipulated), and start with the assumption 1) what are they trying to convince me of, 2) what are the confirmations of the actual facts (anonymous sources don’t count and are unverified). If someone tries to convince you, remain skeptical, and ask “can you prove this”?
