Fact, and not fiction.

In recent days, Spotty has had a couple of posts about evaluating information from a source, especially news sources in Fact and fiction and Fact and fiction, part 2. In these posts, Spot has identified a couple of examples of shoddy or dishonest journalism.

For something completely different, Spot would like to recommend the excellent site Media Transparency as an example of solid, well-researched and well-documented journalism. One of the writers for Media Transparency is local boy Rob Levine, proprieter of the news aggregator Cursor.
