Don't tell me that Stewart is yet another graduate from a "prestigious" School of Journalism.

Is that what is being taught at these schools or do they just teach that the U.S. (meaning any Republican Administration) is evil and needs to be brought to it's knees at whatever lengths one needs to go, including but not limited to, fabricating (aka lying)about events?

We have an older friend who is a retired USAF photographer. After 25 years with the USAF, he retired from the USAF, and for 25 years he worked for the local fish wrap as a photographer and was a free lance photographer for a couple of the major news agencies before he retired about 6 years ago.

He and his wife couldn't believe the anti America reporters, editors and publishers that worked for the local rag and other rags in the N California. They joked that they hired him because he could say anything and he was cheap re his photos.

There was heavier censorship of his photos by the left wing editors/publishers than in his 25 years with the USAF.

The low points came during the 1992 election. Our unemployment rate was below 4%. In spite of that, he and the pseudo journalists were sent out to find, interview and photograph the poor. In the last 4 months before the election, they had a goal of writing and photoing at least 5 families per week and 7 if possible. All ended up as front page or first section stories.

Most of them were professional druggies and had been on the street for years as so called homeless people. Apparently the fish wrap had spotters at the local help the homeless and some churches.

When a new family came in, the newspaper was contacted. The bimbette reporters followed a matrix which included how the evil Bush I had cost them their jobs. The reality were that they were professional homeless and had gotten fliers that our community was a great place to be homeless.

The editor and publisher during 1992 basically refused to run any story or photos showing the good life that 95% were living in the city/county. Every front page local story with photos were gloom and doom. Our friend said the bimbettes were very creative in their writing. One didn't like being near the unclean, and she would arrange a phone interview with the "Poor Ones" at a local social service agency and would send our friend to take photos. He said that the printed stories never told what really happened.
