When an investigation is done, the truth of it will be reported. Until then, the QUESTION of them being rigged is what should be presented. No news channel should be saying they were or were not until the facts are in. Of cource, that's my stance because I want truth, not speculation.

We know there were WMD as we sold them to Iraq. We think they were moved based on multiple reports and sattelite photos. All we can say now is that none have been found. We can NOT say what Bush thought or did not think as we are not him. > We don't know the truth about any of these things, yet the press has > reported on all of them. What sources should've been asked that > weren't? I can't think of one, yet we still don't know the truth. The press has (or should have) reported the facts. There is speculation and alligations of election fraud but no proof. That's the truth. > Journalism is about asking questions and reporting the answers as > given, not providing "truth"; that's what religion is for. What?!? Journalism is about getting to the truth of something and reporting the facts. When a journalist puts in there own bias or bend, that is no longer journalism, it's commentary. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:135815 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
