Eagle Scouts drop Clinton signature
After 'about a zillion complaints,' president removed from certificate
by David M. Bresnahan>
I went to the linked website and read the article in the World Net Daily, an
Internet site I was unfamiliar with. Interesting motto: "A Free Press for a
Free People" I also scanned through several of the other articles which
mostly dealt with antigovernment, antiabortion and progun issues. I was
especially intrigued with the offer from a gun training school to shoot a
machine gun for free and a book offer from Ted Nugent who lays it all on the
line.
I have no problem with stories with slants or conclussions I dissagree with
but when they are written to promote an agenda or evoke a specific response
they go beyond mere news reporting but become editorial opinions.
I prefer the New York Times motto:"All the News Thats Fit To Print" or The
Christian Science Monitor's motto: "To Injure No Man, But To Bless All
Mankind".
