Please. The lie is the newspaper's. All Summer did was shorten it so it fit. He did not add or subtract from the subtitle.
I take back my 73, by the way, it seems to cast blame on Summer, which was not my intention.
With the Rathergate memos, at the least, we saw many main stream people, main stream media people repeating a lie. The forged Air Guard Memos were a fraud, a lie. The narrative made up for them a slander, also a lie.
Yet many high galoots in the sat in their anchor chairs and editor's desks and made the lie alive to many by mere repetition of it. They hold themselves blameless. They were just reporting the *important* story!
Well, the story wasn't important, yet they dearly wanted that kind of slanderous lie out there -- so they made it important.
They blew it up from a subheadline to the major daily lead.
Is repeating a lie a new lie of itself?
