... From A Journalist

   "In America there isn't any mainstream independent press.  If you tell the truth it will never appear in print.  The business of mainstream journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and to sell their country and race for their daily bread.  We are intellectual prostitutes."  - John Swinton, A Senior Journalist For 'The New York Times' - 1953
