Sadly, I gave up on the press a long time ago. I honestly prefer "just the facts". I can make my own analysis and decisions from those facts, if honestly and fully reported. Instead, we get sound bites and opinions intermeshed with the facts. I'll happily read columnists and listen to commentators with the understanding they will slant the news to their viewpoint. I resent reading a reporter who only gives the facts which agree with his point of view.
