The Rest of the Story

My local newspaper said, ". . .U. S. newspapers continue to lose circulation, according to statistics released Monday, offering further evidence of the industry's struggles against television and the Internet."

Wrong. . . Newspapers are losing circulation because they have abandoned their journalistic mandate and have degenerated into organs of political bias. Certainly, they have a right to their opinion, but only in the editorial section. News should contain only facts, with nobody's spin on it. It is difficult to find such honesty in many "news" publications today.
