As someone who has actually followed the news for the last 45 years, they have all gone to the dark side and any hint of integrity has long been sold off to the highest bidder.

Personally, I'm going to write in Assange/Manning this time around. They had the courage to look the Beast in the eye and not blink. Whether they are locked up and the key thrown away, burned at the stake, nailed to the cross, drank the hemlock, history will see them as the good guys and the rest as burning in hell.
