Now this is an interesting concept. A worldwide independent news network that isn't funded by advertising and isn't susceptible to the same political pressures as other news outlets. They're selling journalistic integrity here, but is it for real? I'm looking forward to this. I'll be checking out the featured interviews they have there so far.
What do you think? Will they be all about the facts? Personally, I think this might have the potential to be a Daily Show but without the humour: brutal honesty with journalistic responsibility. Let's hope they don't blow it. |
To me they are just selling activism. Activist journalists are to me, the worst kind. These are people who want to be a journalist to 'make a difference' and in so doing bring all of their biases and agendas to bear, full force.
I'd love a 'facts only' news program, but at best you can only learn to sift the facts from the fluff, the bias, and the BS.
