"I’m saying the news station was remiss in not fully reporting and/or investigating the story."

Where is there a requirement for any news organization to be required to present both sides of an argument? As long as the film was unedited the viewer can decide what other information might be warranted.

Well, we're not talking arguments here. We're not talking about editorializing. We're talking about reporting the news. According to you reasoning, as long as a TV station airs a video of, say, Barack Obamaa arguing his views on the stimulus, there's no need for that same station to air any opposing views. The viewers can simply look at the Obama video and decide for themselves. Huh? Double huh?
