I have no journalism experience, but something caught my eye with today’s [October 8th, 2008] edition of The Oklahoman. Below, the image on the left is a scan of a physical copy of today’s Oklahoman with the clear headline “Obama sarcastic; McCain defends.” For some reason, the online version of today’s paper, found at www.newsok.com, has a [...]

Ok, now it’s REALLY official

Biting off the soundbites
April 27, 2008Bill Moyers had a great interview with Jeremiah Wright this past Friday on “Bill Moyers Journal.” It was refreshing to watch a journalist go to the source, avoid showing only the sensationalistic clip of Wright’s fiery sermon, and instead show the minutes of the sermon prior to his phrasing of “God damn America.” [...]
