Re: 100 facts and 1 opinion
Over the past 15 years, and especially the last four, the press has gradually stopped attempting to dissect spin and has now gotten to the point where they just repeat it verbatim and call that reporting.
Bush could claim the sky was dark green and TV news would report it like this. "In remarks today, President Bush described the sky as dark green. Later, John Kerry expressed disagreement, going so far as to call it a mistatement. Up next, RNC chairman Ed Gillespie and and Tom Oliphant will discuss Kerry's harsh accusation."
