You didn't ID yourself as an investigative journalist aka "biased hack". You referred to yourself as a "professional journalist". Professional journalists are objective and report the story without bias.

Are all journalists that dont agree with your political agenda fakes and phonies?
No, but I don't see those journalists labeling themselves as "professional journalists". Most will admit that they write opinion editorials.

Nobody was denying him freedom of speech. I guess you think it's ok to yell fire in a movie theater too?

No, the type of journalist that writes editorials is called a contributing editor.
An investigative journalist is something else entirely.
Contributing editors do not write investigative pieces, and vice versa.

They were not "professional journalists" they were "investigative journalists". Did you not refer to yourself as a "professional journalist"?
