RE: Examining Honey from a Different Perspective - Steemit Sock Puppetry Continues
This is what investigative journalism used to look like before it was strangled by politics in the real world. Thank goodness for the transparency of the block chain! @ats-david, I salute you.
This article makes a reasoned argument and presents facts. It's good journalism.
Thank you. I appreciate that. This wasn't a solo effort and there's still more that needs to be addressed. As I said - this rabbit hole is fairly deep.
Who helped you? @bacchist? Or someone off-scene? Are you going to be doing some more digging?
More digging? You know it!
But really, most of the digging has been done. Now the information just needs to be presented.
This type of reporting should be encouraged. From Bill Moyers: "One of my mentors told me that “News is what people want to keep hidden, everything else is publicity.”
In the same speech, he goes on to say:
Transparency can be maintained on the block chain. Why even try to turn it into the kind of place where everyone is kept in the dark? Bill Moyers's ultimate argument is that investigative journalists need to be paid higher wages. We should be rewarding good journalism on Steemit.
