“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you do read it, you’re misinformed,”

That a stolen quote from Twain.

What’s that other saying?

“History may not repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme!”

Which doesn’t alter the fact that Denzel said it again in this century. :)

“If you do read it, you’re misinformed,”

It succeeded with him.

Only if he claims it as his own.

I believe for most of my life the Washington Post has been a liberal paper, but I remember when they actually did a very good job reporting the news. (Even though the Watergate investigation by Woodward and Bernstein was a pure political hatchet job) The editorial page was decidedly left but the news was pretty straight for the most part.

But the idea of a purely objective press in this country is a myth. We never had one and we never will. look at the relationship between Jefferson, Madison and Phillip Freneau. The thing is that usually both sides were represented. There was a democrat paper and a Republican paper in most cities. Now it's all dominated by the left and that's the problem.

That [is] a stolen quote from Twain."

And if a republican repeated that quote, there would be a ton of ink spilled about the "plagiarism."

Oh, Denzel, you are so close. But I suppose being an overt Trump supporter would not be the best career move you could make.
