Is this journalism or am I missing something?

I am not sure if the Huffington Post has any standing on objective journalism.  Or maybe it's all opinion pieces.  I am not sure.

But, I just read an article online about what the author depicted as a crazy rant by someone on Fox News.  It is Judge Jeanine Pirro.  She DID have a passionate outburst about her opinion on Obama and what should be done in Iraq.

I see nothing wrong in reporting on the story.  I am just wondering if there is supposed to be ANY objectivity in reporting what was said.

It'd be great if you linked to something, so we all know what you're talking about.

I don't think this particular show was the one referenced.  But, you've got the idea and the right person talked about!

There are at least a half-dozen old hands here who would be more than happy to help you with it. I would be proud to assist, if you like. As for linking, if your post is referring to something you saw somewhere else on the internet, most of the time it's just a matter of copying the contents of the address bar of your source material, at the top of the screen, and then pasting that into your post here. This board's system will automatically recognize it as a link to a web page, and it will be highlighted as a link in your post. Now ain't that easy?  :smile:

If you highlight something, just hit control C, then click on the place you want to post it, and hit Control V, and that's that.
