At what level of "verifiable" does an opinion become a fact?

Is "Elmer Fudd is out here to shoot Wabbits" a hit-piece?

[โ€“] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

We have articles saying "Elmer Fudd has a history of hunting Wabbits and has purchased a seasonal Wabbit hunting permit"

You want articles that say "Terrorist Elmer Fudd is a carnivorous madman who will stop at nothing to capture Wabbits, skin them alive, and offer their hearts to Satan because he's such an idiot he thinks Satan is still a valid angel"

Let's stick to the strict truth as it happens. If you want to criticize anything then it should be that they're too conservative with their use of the term Terrorist or lack thereof. I respect Journalism as a career and I think there are many platforms and groups who do cover the news in a way that is enlightening and thought provoking.
