Dishonest outdoor columnist?

In the more than 30 years I’ve been in the newspaper business I’ve encountered very few dishonest journalists.

Only a couple come to mind and they were plagiarists who were quickly run off by their peers.

The job typically pays so little and asks so much that there isn’t time to make stuff up. There’s seldom time for more than the facts.

Because of my “real world” experience with journalism, President Trump’s attacks on the “dishonest” media have me befuddled. I wonder at what point in my career — had I been a climber — would I begin to encounter the dishonesty or begin to spew lies of my own?...
