  4. Jeffrey McCall:

    That includes admitting errors of fact and errors in decision-making. News credibility is in deep decline and that is partly because news organizations can't bring themselves to honestly explain to the public when they have made mistakes.Further, when mistakes are acknowledged, they should get sufficient space and placement that readers can actually see them, the Hunter Biden laptop story is important on several levels.First, the story was ignored by most establishment media when it first broke, and what little coverage it received was largely to dismiss or debunk the scoop of the New York Post.The journalism of omission in this case was totally glaring in that the establishment media were clearly trying to protect the Biden family as the 2020 election was winding down.

  5. Beth Tarini:
