Associated Press Reporter Syping For Saddam?
It certainly looks that way.
CNN Chief News Executive Eason Jordan got his agency preferential treatment and exclusive access when he kept his journalists from reporting on the worst of Saddam Hussein's atrocities in Iraq. Kind of makes you wonder what this reporter got.
But regardless, the idea of media journalists as "objective truth-tellers" should be pretty much shot to hell for you now if it isn't already. From journalists staging photos for Hezbollah propaganda in Lebanon to Dan Rather and Mary Mapes running a forged memo to smear a sitting President right before an election, it is clear that journalists these days are very much subjective. They aren't about the truth so much as they're about protecting their ideology and writing sensational headlines that will further their careers and make them lots of money.
Citizens are just going to have to learn that they can't trust what the read in the paper or see on television any more.
