Thanks Ken! Fair is fair, bad reporting and misleading statements on both sides is not useful if one wants to restore trust.

I for one am not giving money or viewership to those who are extreme in their commentary (Souza, Trump…). I have become very selective in who I listen and subscribe to; voting with my support or withdrawal of support if you will.

Nice job, Ken. The good-faith mistakes the media made -- and corrected/retracted -- aren't even in the same ballpark as the cynical conspiracy theory-mongering of right-wing commentators. Honest mistakes are inevitable when details come trickling out in piecemeal fashion. Using an assault on an elderly man to score political points is just venomous.

Now that the facts are clear, pay attention to the commentators who were promoting conspiracy theories. See if they admit they were wrong and post corrections/retractions like responsible media outlets did. That will tell you who's trying to give you the facts and who's trying to distort them.
