Personally, we’ve been witness to so-called journalists who couldn’t take as much as they could give. Columnists, commentators and opinion makers who cry “foul” when news sources react with equal force to their bludgeonings. So-called “journalists” who would fry us all but themselves can’t take the heat that cooking basically entails.
Today, Jerry Tundag of The Freeman, in another searing column, calls the “class suit” filed by journalists against the First Gentleman (in reaction to a series of libel suits the latter filed against journalists), a “black eye” on journalism, one that is undoubtedly self-inflicted.
Jerry is essentially saying: If you can’t stand the heat, consider doing the laundry instead.
Thank you, Jerry. You’ve expressed so eloquently the precise sentiment that moves this blog.
