Journalists Need a Handbook

If you review this, how can you trust the media the next time?






I would suggest the producing of a short handbook for journalists (and for media consumers) based on Second Lebanon, Cast Lead and this latest Pillar of Cloud Defense along the lines of:
 
HOW TO AVOID BEING DUPED BY ARAB PROPAGANDA
 
wherein the dozen or so good blog posts and additional material be produced in short fashion, and more structured around these themes:
 
a. the claim
b. the doubts that should have caused the journalist to reconsider
c. the previous problems and their frameworks
d. how to avoid reproducing errors/what to look for.
