A decent journalist like Burns probably feels some obligation to stick with his colleagues. For that reasons, he names no names here, with the egregious exception of CNN, which named itself in that notorious OpEd piece.

But, as he points out, leftist journalist feel no compunction about ratting on their colleagues to a brutal totalitarian state. It's another case of the left thinking that the rules just don't apply to them because their hearts are pure.

The media shapes the news instead of reporting it. With the internet and talk radio plus Fox, that`s not so easy any more.

How does this article have anything to do with embeds?

I think they're owed an apolgy. Did I miss something?

It's not impossible to tell the truth.

Newspapers and TV News are not in the news business: they sell sentiment, not information.
