If a journo releases information that puts someone at risk of harm then they should have to pay for that.

I take everything I read with a grain of salt, because all of them, every last one taints their work with their own opinion. So do you want the truth, or someone else's opinion?

^ No human being ever born is able to do anything other than that, so where is your problem?

It seems that you need to think a bit harder about what you mean by "truth" and how you might approach it.

You're also a citizen with a vote. Better for it to be an informed one than an uninformed one, surely.

No I don't even need to think about it cos I truly don't care!

I'm happy with my own truths, and any truth I have doubts about I will truthfully try to find out the whole truth, and all the juicy bits besides the truth

Gods honest truth
