This Week’s Quote: “Journalganda…it looks like news! But it isn’t. It’s propaganda…There’s nothing like journalganda to make you feel absolutely certain you are correct, no matter what your position…Real journalism can always be identified by the way it makes normal people sometimes feel very uncomfortable about the world.” —Charles M.
