We have enough of our own journalist that suck, why in the world do we need to import rejects from other countries.

Was I the only person unaware that Mr. Sanctimonious Azzhole Pier Morgan was fired from a British publication that ran admitted faked pictures of UK soldiers torturing Iraqis? How in the world does he get a voice here?

It’s a nice rhetorical philosophical question and exercise in mental masturbation depending upon one’s philosophy (do the ends justify the means — or not?), but in all reality and practicality lo these many years — with all due respect Mr. York — it’s obviously a settled question …

It’s the rare journalist today who’s able to hide their philosophical biases despite the large number who claim to try and actually believe they do; for those whose consciousness is more in tune with reality, a disclaimer to that effect (what their bias is) preceding each “report” would be a breath of fresh air (but I’m not holding mine).
