187. So Handing Out Free Passes To Truthout Is Okay?
I don't agree. Particularly when an organization such as TruthOut seeks to differentiate itself from ordinary corporate media. And particularly when that organization tries to align itself with the a progressive viewpoint and other progressive websites. They even use the word "truth" in their name and web address!
Why should we be giving such an organization a "break"? If this is the organization that so many progressives hold up as a beacon of hope, as a shining example of what other news organizations should aspire to be... then why shouldn't we come down on them as hard? Why shouldn't we hold them accountable? Why shouldn't we demand high (or higher) standards?
