Reply #44: If you are reporting the facts, it is not a spin.

The part that I find particularly loathesome is that there seems to be an attempt to focus on the fact that OBL was unarmed. The same people that argue the "24" scenario where it is quite okay to torture people to get information are now trying to position OBL like some innocent, defenseless puppy.

Isn't the idea of spinning the facts, still reporting information that is factually correct, but in a way that changes the way people perceive it for the purpose of fulfilling some agenda (pardon my layman's definition). So, you can still be "reporting the facts" and spinning. Right?
