"JOURNALISM"
« on: August 24, 2020, 01:43:01 PM »
 JOURNALISM !  They have the unmitigated gall to call it "journalism" !
   I was surfing through my TV channels, and noticed that MSNBC has all evening labeled..."Republican National Convention".  Hmmm, thinks I, " I didn't think the convention was on tonight!"  So, out of curiosity, I decided to tune in to see what's up.......  What's up, is a continuation of the democrats convention by MSNBC..  However the MSNBC version is even more loaded with hate and vituperation for the president.  No Republican convention so far...just hatred piled upon hatred.  MSNBC claiming journalism, is like a partisan claiming that Vlad the impaler,  ran a child care center !  They have polluted the very term "journalism"!  BTW, the democrats ran their convention for a week, and I heard not a word about so many American cities that are on fire !..Nor the arson, looting and murders involved.

Were you under the impression that there were journalists on these channels?

  Not really Dee, But I can recall the day when there were real, honest-to-goodness journalists.  Journalists who stuck with presenting the facts, the who, what, where, when, and why.... and not offering an opinion.
  Men like Edward R. Murrow, would never have dreamed of interjecting his opinion, simply because their personal ethics would not allow it !
