I was "quoted" a few times so I had real life lessons. Continual challenges for me are 1) how to find out the truth and 2) how to help students know fact from fiction.

If I want world news, I go elsewhere. Now, I get all my news from The Independent, The Guardian, Le Monde and Samachar.com. After the abysmal and biased, almost sycophantic coverage by t he papers I so loved to read, my husband and I simply could not take the thinly veiled party lines that were being dished out in lieu of honest news.
