"Do not trust journalists. This is a hard thing for me to write: I am a journalist. I regularly write dispatches from abroad for various media outlets, and the occasional opinion commentary to boot. Yet I have trouble trusting journalists. Especially those who are not transparent about how they developed their understanding of the issues they cover. Some journalism is very good; some is terrible. The worst of all are the journalists who try and use "journalism" as a cover for their ineptitude and ignorance…" Main page link Amicalement Armand

"The worst of all are the journalists who try and use "journalism" as a cover for their ineptitude and ignorance…". I actually find those that are ignorant or inept can be tolerated. They just don't know what they don't know. I blame our failed/failing educational system from kindergarten through college. It's the blatant propagandists that I abhor, especially when anyone with a shred of common sense can see right through.

It is foolish to trust the media -- even when they share one's world view or ideology. Because sensationalism sells.
