Media and truth...
~~~~~~~
When I was younger and more naive, I thought the media was honest. I thought that they had integrity and that the threat of possible media exposure kept people honest. I guess it doesn't work that way. Not sure it ever did.
Remember Walter Cronkite? The bastion of truth and honesty. ...Evidently, he was a card carrying Communist Pinko BatRastard Traitorous Friggin Snake.

ReplyDeleteI do believe that they understood integrity back in the day and were mostly able to separate their personal feelings from their work. Mostly.
