There is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, but try getting someone in the liberal media to understand what that actually means. I constantly marvel that people seriously expect to get "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth" for a few quarters. What, do they think that reporters are even under oath? Do we think they would be tried for perjury if they skipped a fact?

So, this is kind of like an auto mechanic rebuilding your car's engine but not bothering to put in the oil. At least he tried and got it 99% right, but it turns out that the 1% he missed was just as important as the 99% he got right.
I certainly don't expect the media to be perfect or balanced or always fair - but I do expect them to make an effort to report the obvious and not make up an obvious fiction.
