No Decency of Candor
Start with the headline, which reads: "US ambassador to Libya dies at age 52." If you read only the bold print you might believe that Mr. Stevens died from a bad oyster or Foggy Bottom flu. In fact, the American representative was killed by Arab terrorists. "Murdered" would be a more accurate word. People "die" from natural causes, like old age or disease. Getting killed by religious cowards is another variety of death altogether -- different enough to deserve the decency of candor.
