Discourse has degenerated to my opinion is just as important as your fact.

Free speech has become synonymous with slander because freedom, unless someone takes the time, money and effort to confront it.

Just as newspapers publish Letters to the Editor they don't purport to verify the content any more than they do the opinions expressed on the opinion page. There is a huge difference in the standard the pieces are held to.

The point is that when someone uses an opinion piece to lambast honest journalism by equating the two it is disingenuous at best.
