Fairness? Balance? the Truth? -- "It's Not My Job"
Check out this great column by the always terrific Mona Charen (who, by the way, has one of my all-time favorite books titles -- "Useful Idiots").
An excerpt:
"[T]he Marines had repaired an old Ferris wheel. The motor was dead, but when two Marines pushed and pulled by hand they could get the thing turning to give rides to the children of the Iraqi employees. They did so for hours on end. A photographer from a large American media company watched impassively. "Why don't you take a picture of this?" demanded one Marine. The photographer snorted, "That's not my job." "
Thoughts, views, opinions, ramblings, ruminations, caterwauling – well you get the point – on such divers topics (mainly politics) as I deem fit.
