A Centrist’s View of Media Exaggeration

Jon Stewart voiced my frustration with the unreasonable and inaccurate exaggeration of what news makers say and mean. It seems to me that most of what is said is sensational and dramatic enough without adding the hyperbole. Can it not be sufficient for media to report the facts without spinning them. This is why I tend to favor PBS and CSPAN, who fall into this trap far less often than the news/entertainment shows.
