GADARENE - actually no - I strongly disagree. The 4th estate of today are there to project the views and protect the interests of the establishment - the ruling class. When the OP asked the question " DOING THEIR JOB"  they most ceriainly are, as they are in the USA, Spain and Aust. It thus has every thing to do with it. The story posted by the OP is a classic example of this reality.
