        But seriously - that was the facts, some background behind it and

        that.

        is.

        all.

        In other words, journalism.

              I've toured the North Carolina battleship. Wow does it give you an appreciation for the tight living quarters, how hot it could get in there, and the pure engineering marvel that ship was.

                A few years ago I toured the Battleship Wisconsin. By the time the tour ended I was asking where I can find the Navy recruiter, so I could sign up. But they weren't taking 60 year-olds at that time.

                  Ahh, but did they publish a retraction and an explanation?

                    “Just the facts” is just part of the story of removing bias.

                    Seems the me the real challenge of ‘objectivity’ is at the margins of deciding what to cover.

                    Only non-witches get due process.

                      So far they have done a very good job. I watched another hour and a half tonight.
