There is an even better article on this subject by Matthew Parris, who, if anyone, has an even better right to express an opinion on this whole question.<br /><br />Yes, John, very funny. :-)Anastasia F-Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01284602529524462457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-52401847602951186182009-10-29T04:31:01.009-07:002009-10-29T04:31:01.009-07:00Where where?

Does the press exist to bring us news? or to bring us unedifying gossip? Most people enjoy gossip. But how much of that gossip is even true? every piece of it that is untrue devalues truth to the extent that people believe it. And, when the lies are exposed, people stop reading.<br /><br />But again, if one has one's eye on a journalistic career, one must go with the popular sentiment, I s'pose. ;-)JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05770347372942866924noreply@blogger.com
