JOURNALISM 101 RULE: If someone says it’s raining, and another person says it’s dry, it’s not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out of the fucking window and find out which is true. — Now more than ever.
@Strandjunker Absolutely!
@Strandjunker this always reminds me of something Susan Jacoby said that objectivity in journalism wasn't a bland presentation of one perspective and its counter perspective (like antivaxxers be held in the same stead as actual scientific researchers)...that it was the journalist's job to say which perspective was actually accurate.
@Strandjunker
Absolutely!
Ah, if only determining the facts were as easy as "looking out the fucking window".
@Strandjunker Truth.
