Jon Stewart, Bill Mahr....wow...these comics are getting rich of these people.
IT does not bode well for this country....NOBODY cares about truth,and I am sure as a journalist you understand, NOBODY cares about checking on FACTS before committing a post and on here what amazes me...when confronted with facts, you do not get an apology...you get a snide remark and off they go to another read to demean whomever.
I am sure you recall the days before all this clap trap on tv, when to be informed you had to read, check and compare...that is how you made your decisions. No negative ads being pumped at you...simply candidate telling you the voter how they see our situation and offering their solutions. Where character counted and was not discounted.
You, as someone in journalism would love Cronkite.....great book and it shows his warts as well as his good points.
