From the blogpost at: http://wp.me/p3xSxU-Hv Any news organisation worthy of the title inevitably carries a great burden of responsibility for reporting events in a factual and objective way because effective public discourse requires an informed citizenry. Irresponsible media speculation and disguised opinion pieces can be (and often are) consumed by the public as if they were news. So it is hardly surprising that many of us are confused by the often contradictory facts and opinions that are served-up to us as ‘news’ on a daily basis.
