I was a news reporter for a time and the thought of fake news was antithetical to the profession. You feared printing the wrong thing, not getting it right. To falsify data was like asking for trouble, because anyone could find out what the truth was and expose you, sue you even. I never doubt reporters like you because it's a profession. Your reputation is at stake. 23 paragraphs and everything is cleared up. It is so simple. It's clean. It's brilliant. You are beautiful.
