The news media should not be strictly motivated by profit. If this were the situation, then there would be no requirement for any honesty in broadcasting whatsoever.

In similar manner to Dan Rather making an "error in judgment" and broadcasting facts that were not truthful, all media outlets should be held to the same standard as 60 minutes.

The fact that they are not, and any talking head can spout whatever he pleases to a public that is not the smartest bunch in the world is not a good situation.

The twisted information that is presented on some of these stations is abysmal. I'm quite sure that most of the group listening to such stations have no clue as to the facts or the fiction.
