Weekly Standard: Lies, Damned Lies, and 'Fact Checking'

Big Journalism

December 10, 2011

MSM fact-checkers are a cancer on our political process, a cynical and partisan conceit created by the left-wing media that allows them to arbitrarily judge what is and is not the truth, in an effort to bring down Republicans and boost Democrats.

I won't even mince words here, the Politifacts and Anderson Cooper's "Keeping Them Honest," and the like must be exposed and neutralized. Conservative media and anyone else interested in truth and objective reporting must get the word out about this charade. Good heavens, the "Pulitzer Prize winning" Politifact has gone so far as to protect Obama from "Saturday Night Live." No, really.

In April, eighth-grader Jared Marcum was arrested for refusing to change a T-shirt with the National Rifle Association logo, a picture of a rifle, and the words "Protect Your Right."

The 14-year-old now faces a possible $500 fine . . . and up to a year in prison. Jared had bean wearing the shirt in the cafeteria when a teacher demanded he either change it or reverse it. He refused and was sent to "the office," where he again refused. And then a police officer was called in. According to press accounts, when Jared was sent to the principal's office, he went.

If you use your website to publish news, events, opinions or interviews, you should familiarize yourself with the basics of journalism. These tools can help us develop and share information that is exciting, intelligent, and responsible.

Whether or not you strive to produce writing that you consider journalism is not all that important. What is important is that no matter what writing genre you specialize in, you have a responsibility to your readers to publish high quality writing that is truthful, accurate, and readable. Oh, and this applies to your professional Twitter stream and Facebook updates, too. All of these elements have a reflection on you and your brand.

Here's the full transcript, courtesy of Chicks on the Right: Mr. President, Fox News isn't what's making Americans sick about your healthcare law. Your healthcare law is. Welcome, everybody, I'm Neil Cavuto. And excuse this departure from form. But I think this is just poor form. So, it's time we set some things straight.
