They all do that. Print big screaming headlines and articles full of untruths...then when they get caught, they print a retraction in very tiny print in a hard-to-read font, buried in the last pages of their rags.
Just too delicious to be true, I guess. Ran it anyway.
She’s getting hammered on Twitter.
My impression is that today’s journalism consists of a combination of those who want to do a good and honest job, and those with an agenda - and that often that agenda is largely driven by their desire to be ‘hot-shots’ in the Watergate style.
The wannabe ‘hot-shots’ are like those we deal with everywhere in life - the marginally talented, extremely aggressive, willing to do ‘whatever it takes’ to promote themselves, jerks.
On top of the pile are those who are largely beyond everyday concerns (they have money and security), but are also arrogant/narcissistic, and embrace the premise that they are powerful people who are guiding society and the world via their control of their media outlet. They like the wannabe ‘hot-shots’ more than the nose to the grindstone wannabe ethical journalist crowd, because the wannabe hot-shots give them the sensationalism and agenda-driven stories that allow them to fulfill their grandiose desires to be the ones who guide society and the world.
It all comes down to ego over integrity, which is way too ubiquitous in the world today.
Should we be surprise!
The modern press is all about finding important stories and covering them.
With a pillow.
Until they stop moving.

Someone finally got me to laugh today.
Thanks!
Georgetown Prep was indeed hiring a director of alumni relations as they posted the job in July. If they somehow updated to position description and posted the updated listing this week the the liar reporter is technically correct, although seriously misleading.
But I doubt it. I think she is just a d**n liar.
My pleasure. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Best,

The MSM would not recognize the truth even if it came up and bit them on their asses.
I might shed a tear - but only if I were chopping onions.
Heil Heil!!
The Washington Compost ran Fake News? I’m shocked, just shocked, I say. /SARC
They should be asked to return all Pulitzers they have ever won.
“I’m shocked. Absolutely shocked that there is Fake News being published in the Washington Cess Pool!”
