The rights of a free press and the ability of journalists to do their jobs should never be up for debate. Every news story should answer 5 W and H. These are often mentioned in journalism news style.

In light of the new major motion picture release by Fox called The Post, I recommend the following films for each and every person who is interested in journalism.

Absence Of Malice - Trailer https://youtu.be/ZSl7GYVn4Kc

All The President's Men - Trailer https://youtu.be/vLt6djxhNe8

Almost Famous - Trailer https://youtu.be/6iyp0qcf7-w

Putin On The Hit

Submitted by ub on

Actions over the past few days have undermined the right’s Trump-Russia conspiracy theory and its headed in the wrong direction.

Furthermore, a Nunes authored Congressional memo contradicts a right-wing belief about what prompted the investigation into the President’s ties to Russia.

Inconsiderate?

During this highly contagious season, while hospitals are overflowing with the Flu epidemic as it spreads unabated, how would you characterize a neighbor in your building who walks around without shoes or socks and totally barefoot on a cold tiled floor lobby, while sneezing and spreading germs all over the place but the pandemic shows few signs of easing and this person wears no mask, has no tissues, or shows any remorse?

No No Nunes

Why does The US House of Representatives top Democrat want the Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee to be removed from his post?

Devin Gerald Nunes is a California Congressman who penned a controversial and classified memo released under a never-before-used House rule, which claims that the FBI did not identify one of its sources in a FISA warrant, to surveil former Trump campaign adviser, Carter Page as working on a dossier funded indirectly by Hillary Clinton.

Columbia and DC Disasters

Submitted by ub on

Today is not only the 15th anniversary of the Columbia disaster that killed all seven astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle, its a District of Columbia disaster on Capitol Hill, where a GOP controlled Congress is plotting at a West Virginia weekend retreat, while the clock continues to tick towards another government shutdown and a March 5 DACA deadline.

Americans commemorate NASA's Kennedy Space Center catastrophe recalling a fateful day in 2003 when after 16 days in space, our spaceship broke apart while re-entering Earth's atmosphere.

So too will our nation remember this day when Republicans and Democrats are settling into a protracted tug-of-war, which could destroy our democracy as we know it?

Home Run or Run Home?

Was the State of the union considered by some a home run and characterized by others as a reason to run home for a reality check? @realDonaldTrump @POTUS Presidential' Trump, a one-night wonder? https://usat.ly/2DYU5Hr

Those who criticize @POTUS at all costs, with the sex scandal, the Russian collusion, obstruction of justice, the president’s mental competency, etc. For those who like the president, the scandal is a conspiracy to destroy @realdonaldtrump orchestrated by the Deep State, abetted by the media and Democratic lawmakers.
