Better Late Than Never?

What is the role of the media and politics? Should they be more involved in Watchdog Journalism, attempting to alert Americans about the important news? Perhaps, they are responsible for boosting the country's morale. Or, maybe they're goal should be to intimidate our enemies? These type of questions must be taken into account when media breaks a story that happened a long time ago that really plays no affect on the country's future. The Press had an incredibly interesting quote regarding this topic. "A Story Told Late Is Better Than A Story Never Told, The Latter Akin To The Proverbial A Tree That Falls In The Wilderness." Personally, I'm torn on this issue. On the one hand, the truth should come out. However, it if has no impact, if it is merely just exciting, is it worth it?
