The CIA Award for Excellence in Journalism - The CIA Award for Excellence in Journalism

Because absolute and unopposed power, free to spew whatever propaganda fits their bullshit ideology, has never gone wrong.

Plenty of journalists are at best lazy and at worst sleazy, but many are also absolutely legit and are ready to put massive work to uncover and present the truth to the public. Besides, they do play an important role as a state opposition, especially back then when they were the only people with the means to spread information.

Don't hate the profession, hate the corrupt people who dishonor it.

Imagine unironically supporting the government illegally killing peoples and enforcing state-control over the press to own the libs.
