Re: Rebuttal and Correction Of Bruenig
From: Dudley Sharp, independent researcher, death penalty expert, former opponent, 832-439-2113, Houston, Texas, CV at bottom
Preface
These are the norms of anti-death penalty media:
1) use, only, anti-death penalty sources and evade fact checking, vetting, and critical thinking of those or pretend that is the case;
2) avoid pro-death penalty experts or pretend that is the case;
3) when the anti-death penalty media is corrected, with confirmable fact checking and vetting, they will not correct their errors;
all three of which violate media ethics, as is well known and which has been the standard for decades (1), within this debate.

FN
1) Research, w/sources, w/fact checking/vetting & critical thinking, as required of everyone in a public policy debate and which rebut all anti-death penalty claims.
The media/academic norm is to use anti-death penalty material, refuse to fact check or vet it or use critical thinking and avoid all pro-death penalty research and experts or to pretend that is the case. How will you know that is true? Read on:
