Quote of the Day - Thomas Sowell Edition

From his recent column Random Thoughts. It's absolutely full of quotable bits, but I'll start with this one:

The question to be asked of people in the media, and that they should ask themselves, should be: "Is your first loyalty to your audience or to your ideology?" The same question should be asked of educators, especially those who see themselves as "agents of social change," even though that is not the job description under which they have been hired and paid.

Well?
