In which I take to task the world's news wires and media for acting like a giant PR agency instead of being journalists. Long before the so-called journalists of AP, the other agencies and all the outlets that run their boilerplate, Aussie Dave at Israellycool knew that the "World's Best Teacher" had married an unrepentant terrorist. But that wasn't news that was fit to print first time round.

Only weeks later did they have to acknowledge that perhaps they should have mentioned it.
