t r u t h o u t | Thanks to NBC's Brian Williams, the principle of truth in=
journalism is once again a hot topic for discussion. So can we expect the =
mainstream media to change their misleading ways any time soon?
Will Fox News ever run a story letting their viewers know that, actually, M=
uslim extremists aren't on the verge of taking over the United States in a =
violent coup? What about the many mainstream media outlets who've scaremong=
ered about Social Security and the deficit, who've apologized for torture a=
nd war crimes, who've smeared whistleblowers and protesters? Any chance of =
corrections being issued about any of that - or about the reality of climat=
e disruption?
We doubt it. Nor do we expect the corporate news channels and publications =
who cheered on the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq to come forward with a=
simple "our bad." At the end of the day, they just don't respect their aud=
ience enough.
Truthout takes our readers' trust very seriously. With no corporate owners =
or sponsors, we put our responsibility to you above all else - and that's n=
ever going to change. It means that we rely on your support in order to kee=
p this organization going. Will you contribute towards our modest budget to=
day with a tax-deductible donation?
