Nov 27, 2014: Katie McHugh: Daily Caller: Trigger Warning! Media Matters Scolds Roll Out Lies for Thanksgiving

Mar 18, 2014: Katie McHugh (Daily Caller) reports that "Candy Crowley wins award for ‘excellence in journalism.’" McHugh reports that Candy Crowley told the Harvard Crimson: “I think [the internet] is an amazing tool that we now have in front of us that opens up so much information and so many forums for people to talk and speak and discuss. But I think as far as journalism is concerned, I worry that so far the internet has mastered us, rather than us mastering the internet,” she said, “I worry that the speed of social media is pressuring daily news into putting something out before it actually passes what used to be really stringent rules,” added Crowley." I think she is both right and wrong with her observation. She is right that the internet has changed the face of journalism. She is wrong, however, to blame social media for shoddy journalism. Blaming someone or something else for bad journalism is a way to deflect responsibility. The good rules of journalism still apply and always have. The internet and social media is not to blame for anything. It simply reveals a bit more about human nature that is already inherent in mans nature. Those who turn out good journalism will be sought out by those seeking quality insight. The rest can wallow in the nonsense of their own choosing.
