Not to be old-fashioned, but there are certain kinds of important stories that simply cannot be covered, except by deep-pocketed traditional media organizations employing professional journalists.

You mean like the success of the surge in Iraq?

“You mean like the success of the surge in Iraq?”

Right on! The only true “Journalist” to come out of Iraq is Michael Yon and a few other independent souls who funded themselves and brought us the truth!

How about Rathergate?

How about CNN (Eason Jordon) “editing” their coverage to keep a man in Bagdad when Saddam was still in power?

How about the French TV rable-rousing coverage of the Palestinian boy who they claimed was murdered by the Israeli army that has been recently found to entirely false.

How about the many proven examples of fauxtography eagerly published by this same “professional” and “deep pocketed” media? It seems that all the deep-pockets accomplish is to attract the most despicable con-men & con-women of our society!

I am thoroughly disgusted.

I am quite proud that I canceled my only newspaper subscription 4 years ago. I hope all the journalists can find gainful and HONEST employment that adds to our society in the future. I think working at McDonalds is probably a step up career-wise for this “journalist”. It is about time he started pulling his weight...
