I'm afraid I've got to agree. This is the first time in my life I 
don't know where to turn to find out what really happened. I solve 
the problem as best I can by using a variety of sources and trying to 
figure it out myself. Still not sure I've gotten it right.

I'm from the school that teaches journalism and commentary are 
separate. It gives me an uneasy feeling.
