If it quacks like a duck, we want journalist's to tell us its a duck, not say, "well maybe its a dog. Not my job to say a dog doesn't quack, it's up to the voters to decide,"

The problem is that sometimes there’s a disagreement about his mendacity. Yet the response is that we’re willfully refusing to label it a lie. So there’s no way to satisfy

Why refuse to label it a lie? Isn't a journos job is to report the truth? He is lying about facts, not opinions. I haven't heard a good excuse of why you can't label that way. Growing up, when I lied, my Dad said I lied. I was brought up that. This debate is just backwards to me

I disagree here. She constantly called Clinton a liar. If she wanted she could be the fire person if she was consistent in how she calls out different people.

Really? If our press does not know a lie from a misstatement & is too irresponsible or lazy to investigate before reporting, you don't deserve the 1st Amend that protects you when you report wrongdoing in/by our govt. Is trump just moving too fast for you?

If someone is constantly lying, that is information that people need to make their decisions. If you are distorting the obvious to maintain an air of impartiality, then you aren't doing your job of informing and analyzing.https://twitter.com/DavidMDrucker/status/1000760920962985984 …

If you want to say Trump "falsely claims" or use terms like "unfounded" and "false" instead of lie, then that is okay, but if you repeat Trump's false claims without being clear they are false, you are failing at your job of informing the publichttps://twitter.com/XLProfessor/status/1000786300235059200 …

The analysis must include the history of deception of abuse already presented. This adorable isn’t like textbook DC coverage; stop trying to play by old rules.

Perhaps a study of Morrow or Cronkite might offer a compelling review of dealing with Trump. Ask yourselves, "what would Morrow do?"

My problem with this is that journalist take credit all the time for exposing something that leads to consequences as proof that their reporting matters. Fair to say my reporting doesn’t work for your agenda, unfair to act like your work isn’t part fireman too

Journalism is designed to shape and manipulate public opinion. It is very political and very left wing.
