Without a doubt, the lowest life form in America today is the journalist within the mainstream media; lower than the shyster attorney and crooked use auto salesman. Once a proud vocation with dedicated searchers for truth it has become a shill for emptiness, blindly in lockstep and following the instructions of the powerful and, consequently, losing. its soul.
You were entrusted by our forefathers to protect the freedoms and liberties enumerated in a beautifully written constitution. Instead you have chosen to become cheerleaders to the politically driven ideology. No longer do you seek the truth, but how to spin “truths” to meet your selfish beliefs. You’ve violated a sacred trust. The public good is no longer of your concern, replaced only by what people want to hear. A once-proud element of society, you now kneel in subjugation to narrow elitists.
The day your thought patters became focused on seeking the truth, will be a day of celebration. I feel, however, that as long as your linguine-spined leadership remains in control, your profession will remain mired in self-delusion and worthy of public scorn which you so richly deserve.
Respectfully submitted,
