Well, every time I've written a resignation letter I've said good things about the boss. As a very sage friend once told me, "Never burn any bridges -- you never know who will be running the gate house at the next one you need to cross." It's just good form to thank a previous employer -- whether the experience has been good for you or not. By the way, guess who that next prospective employer is going to check with, whether you use the old boss as a reference or not?
As for reporters and programs, nobody is perfect. There have been notable breaches in journalistic ethics in the past. Most have been punished by loss of job and no opportunity to work in the industry again.
However, take the number of news stories that appear in media on any given day or in any given year, and consider how may of them turn out to be false or fabricated. It's kind of like an airline accident -- huge news when one happens, but also incredibly rare given the number of flights there are.
And, I will repeat one thing from above. If my politics and beliefs are absolutely straight down the middle (as if that were possible), and you don't believe exactly as I do, I will seem "liberal" or "conservative" to you.
The truth is, that media appears to me MUCH more conservative today than a few years ago -- due in large part to the Fox's, Rush's etc. And my guess is that I'm a lot more centerist than most of the posters here.
