Objective Journalism



For some reason, I don’t have words so I’ve been reading like I’m loading bullets back into a gun. Here’s one of my favorite excerpts from the book I’m reading now, Fear And Loathing On The Campaign Trail ’72:
“So much for Objective Journalism. Don’t bother to look for it here—not under any byline of mine; or anyone else I can think of. With the possible exception of things like box scores, race results, and stock market tabulations, there is no such thing as Objective Journalism. The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms.”
