F., I applaud the revealing of bullshit, but regret the possible responses. What's the sense in revealing a lie if you don't at least point to the truth?

I have a bias, though. There's long running and well repected 'truthtelling' investigative show here in Canada. I thought they were pretty good. I still think they're pretty good, but I happened to watch one of their programs a few years back, the subject of which I was very well and very personally informed about. I was amazed by the amount of distortion, the failure to understand the science, the missing crucial pieces of information, the failure to interview key (and available) individuals. No outright lies were told, but some good people were portrayed poorly, and some rotten individuals were given a free pass.

I can understand why: the subject was outside of the journalists' experience, the story was a maze, hard for an outsider to follow. I keep that in mind when I watch such programs now.
