US journalist admits faking story about Iraq attack in 2003

That US journalists should be held liable and be given right sanctions according the laws of United States. Journalists have a great responsibility to us, because they are our eyes through which we're supposed to see the world. So they must be at least true to themselves, to what they really see even if they cannot avoid their own personal biases.

I think lots of journalists/media personalities tend to over exaggerate things just to attract other people's attention. At least, Brian Williams has finally admitted it and already apologized.

These journalists are threatened by the new forms of media especially the internet and so they create stupid stories to try to sell magazines and newspapers. We should all be vigilante with matters concerning warfare and the state of security in each and every country in the world so that we do not fall victim to these bogus stories.
