Journalists today want to "make a difference" rather than be report the facts of the story.
With that motivation, you need to make stuff up and slant stories to your own end.
They decide the slant and then fit the "facts" to the narrative they are pushing. People are noticing and that's why the Lame Stream Media is rapidly (but not enough) dying.
Take the Van Jones story. Bloggers broke that and until he resigned at midnight on Saturday, there wasn't one story on any of the major networks, or the New York Times.
