Yeah, establishment journalists consistently provide accurate information, like the time they discovered that huge stockpile of WMDs in Irak.


When journalists fail to adhere to journalistic standards they should be criticized for that. What's your point?


I guess the fact that we have to separate independent journalists from the ones working for privately owned outlets is problematic in itself.


Right, what I'm saying is that we should uphold objective standards rather than just saying independent journalists are generally more/less trustworthy than established ones.


Yes this is very true. There are honest journalists and frauds on both sides. (wink wink Alex Jones)


Any examples that aren’t old enough to have finished high school by now? And were not a major public scandal, that cost the people involved their jobs?
