The Tolerant Left at it again....again

Usually, though, when I'm confronted with a story that seems too good for either side, I find that searching for the news item and looking for stories from multiple sources can be helpful, focusing on sources like AP, Reuters, NPR, and BBC for the most fact-based reporting. Don't get me wrong, I like reading WaPo and the NY Times, but I know they lean left and so I will usually look to those other agencies just to verify.

I'm not going to sit here and say opinions about things are wrong, but when we throw around terms like "lying" we should have evidence to back that up. That isn't there in this instance.

We had a reboot in this forum, recently, and I took that as a good time to really practice this sort of behavior more consciously. I think it'd be great for others to do the same.
