Lowrey, a journalist, doesn’t appear to have a solid grasp on, you know, journalism.

@ryanavent @AnnieLowrey a free press is designed to report facts free from Gov influence or control. Not to promote an agenda.

@AnnieLowrey "Reporters" who become part of the story are no longer reporting. They're advocating.

@Joe7Seven7 @redsteeze @AnnieLowrey When reporters intentionally become part of the story, the story is dead.You've poisoned the water.

@AnnieLowrey Reporterscare supposed to "report" not "influence". Seems you have an inflated view of yourself.

@AnnieLowrey Which is why we don't trust them
