Get your facts first, and then you can distort 'em as much as you please.

Journalism
A news sense is really a sense of what is important, what is vital, what has color and life — what people are interested in. That's journalism.

Journalism
The duty of journalists is to tell the truth. Journalism means you go back to the actual facts, you look at the documents, you discover what the record is, and you report it that way.
