Remember when journalists could be trusted? » Letters From The Left
I grew up the daughter of a hard-nosed newspaper reporter who valued the truth above all. He could cover an issue he felt passionately about and leave his own feelings at the door. He had integrity. I remember when Walter Cronkite was the nation's most trusted man. He reported the news and nothing more, until he saw what a travesty the Vietnam War had become and felt compelled to speak out. I was disappointed, even though I agreed with him. Opinion is why newspapers have editorial pages, and that is where opinion used to be confined.
