BS. We need better reporters and way less 'opinion'/preachers/etc in the US. I have absolutely no interest in what a journalist thinks. Their job is to communicate news and facts to me in ways that are useful.
Watch Newsnight on BBC for an example of real unbiased journalism (And some of the best debates you'll find anywhere).
What the US needs is a Jeremy Paxman / Dimbleby etc.
- apu 16y agoNewsnight is very far from unbiased journalism. I agree that we need better reporters, but the way to do it is not to keep pretending that they objectivity, but for their biases to be out in the open. It's like bugs in software: rather than pretending your software is bug-free, you should instead try to measure just how many bugs it has and their severity.
