For the record I was a journalism major in college and was taught by old school journalists from the Buffalo Evening News and the Courier Express. I never followed journalism as a career path but it provided me with very good writing skills.
These men and women lived to break a story (consider Woodward and Bernstein) and VERIFY it. My one prof said in a lecture “If your mother says she loves you, check it out”. We were taught to write objectively and let the reader decide. Opinion pieces are meant for the editorial page. I stopped watching the news and reading any daily newspaper YEARS AGO because it wasn’t news, most of the stories were editorials disguised as news. Candidly, for me, the death of the legacy media can’t come quick enough.

Clandestine, I truly appreciate what you do.
