Open Message to News Media

News stores do not end with a question mark!

News - by definition - is what happened. Yes you need to ask questions to find this out, but when you report on it you reports the FACTS - not questions. So just cut the crap!

Don't ask if Cho bought his guns illegally. Find out and tell us!

Don't ask if the pet food was purposely spiked. Find out and tell us!

Don't ask what's next for Sanjaya. Find out and...uh, never mind!

If you don't have the answer, you don't have a story. So stop pretending to be journalists and do your jobs!
