Thucydides...first among historians... querried on the factuality of his entries he replied "this is not what great Caesar said, but rather, what he ought to have said."
you mean every source has a bias no matter if they are making a good faith effort to be impartial!? i didn't know this! tell me more....
Well played, given that Thucydides lived a couple centuries before Caesar.

When I took Journalism at WF a little over a decade ago, I asked a classmate who was serious and wanted to pursue a career in journalism a simple question: "so what do you want to do with your journalism degree? " She said, "I want to change the world." Factual, responsible journalism didn't even register. Scariest moment of my life, and I've been attacked by knives and had a gun pulled on me. What it meant to me was, "I lack the talent to actually become a leader, so I'll join forces with other like-minded people to tell a story that I like."
It's happening now and I feel sick about it, and I'm not a republican.
