I’ll be interested to learn where your sense of journalistic outrage leads
you.

Well, youre gonna have to choose another topic, I can’t lie and say I’m from
the US, because I’m Indian. I’d rather not comment on matters I have
partial/incomplete knowledge of in the first place; that’d be asking for
trouble. So I’ll be diplomatic and not comment on this one. And indeed, if I
*did* comment, I’d be hijacking this thread.

Wow! Yours is the most reasonable post I can remember reading in .debate.
Thank you for staying on topic and not feeding the troll. You hit the ball
out of the park! (American baseball expression)

Yeah, I guess I can see how a discussion of trivial outrage inspired by a
perceived failure of journalism is completely distinct from serious outrage
inspired by an actual, systemic failure of journalism. Sorry to blur these two
obviously unrelated issues.
Good call, Erik!
Dave!
