Lester Holt, longtime NBC News anchor, is one of many once-respected newsmen who appears to have sold out to editorial pressures. He recently gave voice to something many journalists, editors, news anchors, and talk show hosts have believed for at least the last ten years or so – and perhaps for very much longer than that. On March 30, while accepting an award at the 45th Murrow Symposium, Holt admitted that he believes reporters should decide for themselves – and presumably for their audience – what is true and what is fact, and then quite simply disregard everything else.
Is Holt implying that journalists do not have a duty to search for the truth? Yes, that is exactly what he’s saying. After all, the truth – of anything – is not always obvious. Oftentimes the truth can only be clearly discerned by questioning, by doubting, by cross-examining. Sometimes, facts can only be established by searching for the existence of alternative facts.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
