YOUR TRUSTY REPORTER

FACTS: A true piece of information

In matters of truth the fact that you don’t want to publish something is nine times out of ten, a proof that you ought to publish it.

Gilbert Chesterton

Writer/Poet/Theologian

1874-1936

YOUR TRUSTY REPORTER

I am your trusty reporter

The story is what I seek

But at times I might embellish

The news I'm paid to speak

There is never much real interest

In facts that turn out bland

So I stir into my story some fantasy

Lies seem to be in demand

It was never my intention

To stretch and mold the facts

But the truth is often boring

So I report it inexact
