The News Cycle 101

by: Juan Melli

Thu Aug 03, 2006 at 09:56:01 AM EDT



  • Reporter #1 writes slanted story - burying important details in the end of the article, giving Underhanded Politician the opportunity to hide the facts.

  • Underhanded Politician repeats Reporter #1's story, leaving out inconvenient details.

  • Reporter #2 writes even more slanted story, reporting on Underhanded Politician using first reporter's story against other campaign, completely leaving out details Reporter #1 only tried to avoid.

  • Reporter #1 reports on campaign using Reporter #1's slanted story, lending credibility to Underhanded Politician's charges by this time leaving out inconvenient details.

  • Noise, noise, noise, lather, rinse, repeat.
