re: Lauer followed with an apt question to Manchin of his own: "when the average person across the country hears that this mine had been cited for 46 violations as recently as late December, it is hard to understand why it was open for business on Monday when that explosion occured."

Typical. That's not a question at all, but rather a statement. I hear that all the time. The reporter makes a statement, usually one of condemnation, then end it like a question, but it's still just a statement of opinion. Drives me crazy!

Yes. I wish these so called journalists would stop with the commentary and editorializing. Just give us the facts. We can figure out the truth.
