More news less rumor!
The news industry's performance during the
last tragedy has been at least disturbing if not disgusting at time. At
least one person honesty and innocence was trashed without any
foundation whatsoever (The brother of the shooter) and no apology was
made whatsoever.There is a huge difference between news reporting and
rumor mongering. The hunt for the ratings has corrupted the entire
industry. I do believe that it is time we return to the practices of
Walter Cronkite and Edward Morrow. There is a French Proverb that advise
to twirl one's tongue in one's mouth seven times before talking, that
sounds like a pretty good advice right now!
