<\/a>US-Pr\u00e4sident Obama hielt vor einigen Tagen eine bemerkenswerte Rede bei der Verleihung des Toner<\/a> Preises. Interessant f\u00fcr JournalistInnen, wie Roberta Toner eine war.<\/p>\n

But when our elected officials and our political campaign become entirely untethered to reason and facts and analysis, when it doesn\u2019t matter what’s true and what’s not, that makes it all but impossible for us to make good decisions on behalf of future generations. It threatens the values of respect and tolerance that we teach our children and that are the source of America\u2019s strength. It frays the habits of the heart that underpin any civilized society — because how we operate is not just based on laws, it’s based on habits and customs and restraint and respect. It creates this vacuum where baseless assertions go unchallenged, and evidence is optional. And as we’re seeing, it allows hostility in one corner of our politics to infect our broader society. And that, in turn, tarnishes the American brand.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
