So let's see a link to multiple stories by a respected right wing mag or show where they make up "facts" used in story, claim to interview people they've never interviewed before, and in general just shit all over the profession.
I mean, if it's rampant on both sides, you must have lots of examples of those. I can pull up example after example of NBC, the BBC, the NYT and others doing exactly that. And admitting it.
Surely you can do the same, with examples of the right committing the same crime.
I have a problem with this argument, period. Just because one person lies does not mean the other person who contests what that person says must be lying, too. People who enable abusers use this line all the time...."There are two sides to every story...." as if there's no such thing as a person who lies and a person who tells the truth, and if one person lies, then the other MUST be lying as well.
Sometimes the truth is NOT in the middle. Sometimes it's actually much, much worse than anyone even realizes.
