Let's assume for a second that journalists are interested in the truth. If they were allowed and if they wanted to, they could list every lie told by politicians and public figures. They choose not to. In fact if you part of the establishment you get the cosiest of interviews. If on the other hand you represent a viewpoint the press disagree with or they feel your views threaten them they'll come after you with every lie and slur they can dream up.
