Should news organizations claiming to tell the truth be legally obligated to do so?

Viewers watch news programs because they want to be informed on current events and they do not have the time or the resources to find this information on their own.  Viewers rely on getting accurate information from the news, but how often do they actually receive this.

A call for opposing arguments: Why should the age of candidacy not be lowered to 18 years of age?

What arguments can you make against lowering the minimum age of candidacy for Congress to 18 years of age?  Arguments should be structured with premises, inferences, and a conclusion (loose structure is okay as long as the premises can be clearly identified).  Let's try to keep this an intelligent conversation and do this with as much credibility as possible.  If you have not already read the argument for lowering the minimum age then follow this link to read up on it: http://www.change.org/petitions/united-states-congress-lower-the-minimum-age-for-candidacy

Why is it important?

I started a petition a short time ago.  The only reason I would actually go through the trouble of writing a petition is if there was nothing else out there like it.  The issue I bring up is not one being talked about by most people.  I would say that it isn't being talked about by anyone but I have no way to know that for sure.  The point is, no one is making an issue of it, so I did.  My petition is about lowering the age of candidacy in congress to 18 years of age.  

Are we all progressives?

A progressive cannot be defined by which actions he/she supports on political issues.  A progressive is defined by which he/she seeks to achieve as a whole, that is, someone who seeks improvement or positive change.  If anyone says the world is perfect, or even that this nation is perfect, then they are highly misinformed and unaware of all the struggles, sufferings, and injustices currently happening and constantly occurring in our society.
