Which, besides my piss poor spelling and grammar, is why I wouldn’t be a good fit for that career field. If my name goes on it, I own it. Movies aren’t entirely factual but they do get close enough to home, and I’ve seen enough to understand the Chief Editor takes his liberty to do what he is charged with, increase circulation. That title actually could lead someone to believe the author has an axe to grind with the other publication.

I don’t read much ESPN, CNN. Fox, USA Today, etc for precisely this reason. Obscure publications is where the transparency tends to reside.
