The press in a nutshell

By Dale Franks, from a larger discussion of the NYT's hit piece on the Swift Vets:

Reporter I: How do you respond to your critics, who allege that you butcher puppies for amusement!?

You: I don't butcher puppies!

Reporter II: When did the puppy-killing stop!?

You: But, I never killed puppies!

Reporter III: So, the puppies were already dead before you butchered them!?

You: No, I--

Reporter IV: So the puppies were alive then!? But you've just said the opposite! Which is it, sir!?

You: No, it's all untrue!

Reporter V: Then how do you explain these serious allegations!?
