IN NEWS WE TRUST

This quote is from William Tecumseh Sherman who was a General in the Union army during the Civil War.

I hate newspapermen. They come into the camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which, in truth, they are.

IN NEWS WE TRUST

The media are voyeurs

Paid to skulk in others' lives

Supposedly fact finders

Theirs lies can cut like knives

If the facts do not inspire

The readers they entice

They put a pot of half truths on the fire

And add their lies like spice
