n Samuel "Joe the Plumber" Wurzelbacher says that journalists "make a big deal out of" wars, which he thinks is "asinine."
"I'll be honest with you. I don't think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what's happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I-I think it's asinine... Now everyone's got an opinion and wants to downer--and down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers.
I think media should be abolished from, uh, you know, reporting. You know, war is hell. And if you're gonna sit there and say, 'Well look at this atrocity,' well you don't know the whole story behind it half the time, so I think the media should have no business in it."I am waaaay confused. Because reporters may not know the "whole story," they have no business investigating and seeking out the truth? The functions of journalism include research, disseminating information to the public to inform, educate and assist. Reporters gives voices to the voiceless. The crazy thing is that you can tell that this man is actually serious about what he says.
