RE: Examining Honey from a Different Perspective - Steemit Sock Puppetry Continues

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:

"What happens when our elections are insider-driven charades conducted for profit by professional operatives whose spending on advertising mainly enriches themselves and the cable and television stations in cahoots with them? We know the answer, we know that a shortage of substantial reporting means corruption remains hidden, candidates we know little about and even less about who is funding them and what policy outcomes they are buying. It also means even more terrifying possibilities. As Tom Stoppard writes in his play Night and Day, “People do terrible things to each other, but it’s worse in the places where everybody is kept in the dark.”

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.
