Some liberals on facebook were describing Republicans as those doing yellow journalism: a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers.

Fact Checkers – those Great Purveyors of Truth
Beverly says: “I would love to see a bar under the candidates with the fact checkers score with each statement made by the candidates. Something like”liar, liar, pants on fire.” Or “he might could do that.” It’s bogus. The only difference with fact checkers is that they build themselves up as the great purveyors of […]
I Will Not Read, I Will Not Listen, I Promise
ABC News to its writers: Folks, this election is about ignoring all of Romney’s successes, kindness and generosity, and ignoring all of Obama’s failures, selfishness and narcissism.

And it will not have […]
