That's not to say that "they lied again!" has to be the focus of every story in media. On that, I agree. But when a candidate has such an unabashed history of deceit, the fact that it's immediately continuing into his life as head of state IS the story, IMO.

Devil's advocate.... I wonder if (hope that?) this will truly turn out good in the end. Instead of just trusting what is being said and reporting on it as if it is fact, journalists/reporters will now have to dig for the truth... truly work for what the truth really is.
