Meet the press.

Greetings,
I hope enough people read the linked article in yesterday’s fervent post. Outrage, I thought, was beyond me. Anger yes, but passing. Outrage, I thought I was too cynical, had read it all, etc. Clearly not.
For today, meet the press: Source is Namaste Magazine.
This is from 1880, One Hundred and Thirty years ago!
Read that? 180 years ago…
John Swinton on the Free Press
One night, probably in 1880, John Swinton, then the preeminent New York journalist, was the guest of honour at a banquet given him by the leaders of his craft. Someone who knew neither the press nor Swinton offered a toast to the independent press. Swinton outraged his colleagues by replying:
“There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with.

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
