Today's Word—Critical Thinking

More on Asking:

“There is never a moment when your critical thinking should be suspended, never a moment when it's enough to say, as a justification for printing something, that this is what the cops told me or the school officials told me, or the ‘sources’ at City Hall told me. There is no moratorium in journalism for checking it out yourself.”
William F. Woo, newspaper editor, educator and author, in Letters from the Editor: Lessons on Journalism and Life, Philip Meyer, ed., 2007
