Mr. Boriss, I don’t know your capabilities/intelligence beyond this article, but I consider it a tragedy that someone who throws around words as irresponsibly as you should be in any position of academia to influence young minds.
It’s certainly one thing to speak to public discourse as a fair fight (i.e. a “good” thing) in the USA. But I read nothing from you about journalistic ethics, about gathering and disseminating information and allowing the reader to analyze and decide.
I sense, unfortunately, more of the “journalist-as-meddler” sense in your article, to paraphrase: well, gee, there’s never been fair and balance work in reporting and it’s dumb to even think there ever was, so just keep heaping up all the biases and pumping out your own damn opinion as much as possible until the your side “wins.”
In my opinion, your perspective of journalism is dangerous to our free society.
