“A free press is one where it's okay to state the conclusion you're led to by the evidence. One reason I'm in hot water is because my colleagues and I at NOW didn't play by the conventional rules of Beltway journalism. Those rules divide the world into Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives, and allow journalists to pretend they have done their job if instead of reporting the truth behind the news, they merely give each side an opportunity to spin the news.” IfsWorldGivingStatesReasonDonePlayJobsOpportunitySidesWaterBehindsRepublicanTruth IsNewsEvidenceOkayHotPressesDemocratConclusionJournalismJournalistDividesConventionalColleaguesFree PressHot Water Author:Bill Moyers
