They just said that the journalist must speak truth to power. Trump = power. I guess Obama did not = power. Hillary did not = power. Not sure why. Any ideas for the distinction?

Nothing says speak truth to power quite like leaking your debate questions to your networks's favored candidate.

That's a rather expansive view of the role of the journalist.

My impression has always been that it is, first and foremost, the journalist's responsibility to report the news fairly and accurately.

Some girl. She actually wasn't bad looking. Who is the only good looking girl on CNN?

Well that narrows it down. Usually good looking = conservative.

I'm not alarmed then. She was probably just explaining the views of the less attractive gals.
