Peter Jennings did not tell the truth … wasn’t that his job?

Her answer was that was not what he thought his job was. Jennings job (to him) was to keep his face on the screen, not to report the news. I have never watched the talking heads since then, as I don’t care if they keep their “jobs.”

I read news from reporters without any of the spin from those who refuse to report or question anything.

If one of them told me it was raining, I would look out my window to verify it.
