On Topic: Truth Or Consequences Is More Than A City In New Mexico

You don’t trust Clinton. You don’t trust Trump. But do your employees trust you? You say that’s not a fair question? Let’s talk about this for a couple minutes. It’s in the first season of the HBO series “The Newsroom” in which Will McAvoy, the anchor of a fictional cable news channel and played by Jeff Daniels, contends that “fair and balanced” really is a lazy excuse for news organizations to ignore facts — gravity exists, climate change is real not “bad science,” the current president was born in this country — instead of following those facts where they lead, regardless of ideology, and then holding people accountable for what they say and do. It most certainly also was a jab by series creator Aaron Sorkin at Fox News, which uses that phrase as a tagline. That episode was first aired back in 2012.
