I agree with you. Why not contact a credible journalist? Why Hannity?? One of the worst choices he could make.
You show me a journalist who blew the whistle on Michael Nifong within a week after Chrystal Mangum decided she needed to frame the Duke Lacrosse Team, and I will show you a credible journalist. It was that obvious, that early.You will not only not identify the journalist who did that within a week, you will not be able to find the journalist who ever blew the whistle on the rest of journalism for continuing to parrot Michael Nifong months after it was painfully obvious that Mangum’s charges were a hoax.
So, essentially the term “credible journalist” is an oxymoron. As long as you are talking about journalists whom wire service journalism would respect as “objective.” Face it, anyone who claims to be objective - or who belongs to an organization which claims its members are objective - is off-the-charts subjective.If you want to try - just try, mind, not assure success - to be objective, the first thing you must do is examine your own motives and be brutally honest and open about them. In the case of a journalist, motives would be to attract attention and to self-promote - and that will always bias a journalist toward seeing only the worst in people upon whom the public depends. Since proclaiming your own objectivity is the opposite of openly declaring your bias, no “objective journalist” is credible. None.
