NYTer Chris Hedges says journalists have a moral contract with viewers and readers to be truthful, even when it means challenging conventional wisdom and ferreting out unpleasant facts.
Since when have NEWS HACKS done THAT? Moreover a holy kingdom of news that can EXCRETE THIS FLACKERY will NEVER challenge the CW and NEVER ferret out unpleasant facts, except for those unpleasant to intelligent and sensitive readers. This priest at THE PAPER OF RE-CORD gets the LORD GOD PINCH's GOSPEL right, though: "Balance does not mean giving everyone the same space"
