I am proud of my work, all of which I have signed for more than 40 years and which has been recognized repeatedly with the highest honors in my field, has saved lives, brought criminals to justice, freed an innocent man from life in prison after I hunted down the real killer, exposed government abuses at every level, exposed misconduct by some of the richest and most powerful people and institutions in the world, caused two TV stations to be forced out of business because of news blackouts and manipulations, and….. I could go on here for enough to fill a book.
None of which, of course, has ANY bearing on the issue at had.
Mr. Johnston, I’d suggest you take those wonderful investigative skills and look at the circulation figures for newspapers as well as polls on the public’s trust for journalists.
