Like what my father-in-law said one time when questioned if one of his statements was a fact or his opinion.

He said “it’s the fact of my opinion.”

I’m smelling what your stepping in - media bias. Thanks for pointing out that “they are not even attempting to be objective anymore.” Can journalists no longer differentiate between a fact and an option? No, they can, it’s just that they won’t. They have an objective and it is to make objectivity obselete. Because objectivity is too close to “truth” for them to handle. If they endorse objectivity, they endorse truth, and if they endorse truth they are accountable for how they live. It’s always a moral issue.

Thanks for your clarifying insights. I, along with you, am burdened that this generation grow up to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

Well how ’bout that?! I stand corrected (and correcting). If it’s not a boy named Sue, it’s a man named Jann…

Jann is a man. In fact “the man”, when it comes to Rolling Stone. If he doesn’t own RS and it’s subsidiaries, he might as well, with as much power as he wields.
