As journalists, we try to show a high degree of transparency and engage in consistent and substantive discussions with our colleagues.

But experience has shown us that of all foreign journalists, the Americans are the ones who care least about truth and objectivity. They are only concerned with sensational and selective reporting, which in the end turns out to be biased.

In comparison, European journalists seem more open-minded and objective. Some of them come here to dig for the truth, others wish to understand and appreciate our point of view, which they seek to explain to their readers in their own way.
