Lester the truth molester Holt.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Lester Dolt lives up to his name.

Lester Holt revealing his inner Stalin dying to come out.

[FormerFRLurker]

Well, in a sense he’s right. One side’s opinion is not equal to the other side’s facts.

[eyeamok]

I agree sort of, I pay NO Attention to Anything a Presstitute ever says, especially ABC,NBC,CBS,CNN,MSNBC,....

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Truth is a demure lady, much too ladylike to knock you on
your head and drag you to her cave. She is there, but
people must want her, and seek her out.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

[Pearfect]

The media is the communications arm of the democrat party.

FAKE NEWS !!!!

[dainbramaged]

Know your place, proles - I’m a “journalist” and my word will not be questioned.

[JohnBrowdie]

thought crime isn’t far behind.

[Seruzawa]

Once again satire becomes impossible. This would be right off the pages of the BabylonBee.

[SaveFerris]

Lester Dolt has been lying for Democrats for years now. /Captain Obvious

In that regard, he is just like Brian Williams.

[ConservativeInPA]

Whoever taught Holt to read should be persecuted. Obviously, Holt lacks all critical thinking skill. People who read but can’t think have no place in the media.

[RoosterRedux]

I don’t plan to read the article, but does Lester tells us how the truth should be arrived at if not by weighing ALL the facts?

[Bratch]

I’m sure that philosophy was comforting to the millions of Ukrainians wiped out during Stalin’s purges.

“The New York Times” certainly had no interest in providing fairness in their pro-Soviet articles at the time.

[clintonh8r]

If you ever believed this guy, or those like him, you’d be a fool to continue to do so.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Back in the day, when I helped radio show host Mike Gallagher with his media, I think I annoyed him by opining that Fox News needn’t be “fair and balanced”, only truthful and accurate!

[monkeyshine]

His first mistake is believing there are only 2 sides.
His second mistake is this.

[Spok]

The behavior of the media has proven their disregard for truth and fairness long who. This is no surprise.

[Cboldt]

He’s got a point. fair and balanced was a mix of lies and half truths. Could do without the lies. But, the way I see it, the media is the stress for our truth detectors. Better to think for yourself than allow the press to do ANY thinking for you.

[Louis Foxwell]

Yes, Lester. So is truth.
