journalist do matter because they aren't, you know BIAS. Journalist are supposed to be neutral, objective and open minded.

Don't you think the judgment of your president and AD are bit more one-sided due to their employment to the university? Of couse the AD and president are going to try to downplay this whole thing, it is in their BEST INTEREST to do so.

This is like pro Gaddafi supporters/loyalist saying, "well I am going to believe the word of Gaddafi over international journalist about possible human rights violations because he is the leader of Libya and really knows what is happening in his country."
