Grady Hardin o Two women were talking as! they rode on a bus together and j they noticed a newspaper boy on j the street calling out the head-j lines as he sold his papers. One of the women said: “I am disappointed in the news papers. I thought that after the war was over they would have better news, but they go on print ing news just as bad as it ever was.” Disappointed in the newspapers! Why not be disappointed in the mirror because of its bad image ? Bad news in a newspaper is only a reflection of the world, and certainly the reporters are not to be blamed for the news they have to print. Perhaps papers can be criticized for the manner of their style or their editorial policy, but certainly not for the news that must be reported of the important events of our day. This woman on the bus was making a common error. She was placing the blame for evil in the wrong place. She was also indulg ing in the dishonest sport of dodg ing all personal responsibility, A newspaper cannot be blamed for the corruption it reports in govern ment. Nor can we shift all the blame to the corrupt person in government. Ultimately, we in a democracy must accept our part of the responsibility. The world is a mess—there is no doubt about it—but it would be worse if we were worse. It would be better if we were better. It is better to wash our faces than to curse the mirror! READ THE ADS TOO!
