Is he not performing the functions of a journalist? And if so, should we not encourage and admire someone's impulse to buck the system (without being destructive or unreasonable)? Why side with Goliath?
- unreal37 14y agoWe should encourage reporting of the accurate truth, yes. We should discourage link-bait, and over-hype, and sensationalism. Even RWW should have done a better job looking into what happened, instead of just finding an anti-FB story of the day to post.
