Basic rule of journalism. Confirm your source, confirm your source, confirm your source - and shut up if you cannot.

Angela, I disagree here...I once served on a board with other political activists, an initiative effort to reduce property taxes. As such, we were exposed to the Oregon press. They have no morals, would hurt their own mothers if they thought there was a story in it. They are masters of taking statements out of context, half truths, etc. The "Journalists" have agendas, never think they don't.
When we won Measure 5, I dropped out...to this day, if I see a reporter or a TV camera, I get as far away as possible.
