    It’s not the purpose of the media to faithfully report “both sides”. That’s the problem in a nut shell. The idea that there are always two sides to every issue and that they are equal. That they are always equally legitimate. Media treats it like a sporting event, like a debate club. That is a total warping of journalistic principles.

    The job of journalists is to report truth. To find truth and inform the people.
