This is an extremely dopey narrative that gets repeated constantly on the Internet. The VAST majority of members of the media are NOT opinion writers, and thus should NOT be voicing opinions in their articles.

It's not about me ( obviously ), though I am comfortable in the positions I have taken on these and related issues in the past. However, some rush to judgement, just because maybe it makes you feel better or helps you pander to the masses, isn't going to help in the long run.

Bottom line, blaming others that are completely innocent is nonsensical and only works to obfuscate the real issues.
