    An Interesting Take on Objective Journalism

    Rex Murphy is in my opinion, one of the best if not the best of journalists and commentators in Canada. Apart from his clear thinking, he is a seriously good writer and a joy to read. The attached article is a very interesting commentary on the lack of objectivity of modern "journalists", including his views on Time magazine and the New York Times and their approach to covering Mr Trump.

    That, of course, is the whole point. Leftists claim the President is "attacking the First Amendment" when he is critical of "journalists" and extol the high calling of journalism in a democracy. But it is really modern left wing "journalists" who are attacking the First Amendment -- by failing to do their duty to objectively report the news.
