a journalist is a painter  




walking with a friend
we discussed news quality

he feels trust in journalists
presenting reality to us

provokingly i opinioned "no, they offer bs"

well they don't of course
actually they offer art, like a painting
isn't that beautiful?

they are creative artists
turning an event
into a story

a story is like a painting
"say you paint this seascape"
as we walked somewhere on the coast
"in realistic style"

a good discussion
can sprout good ideas
thank you my friend
for our differences
