It was so big the Washington Post and all the others picked it up. These journalists in Kansas investigated the background of their newly hired principal, Amy Robertson.<\/p>\n<p>They found discrepancies in her credentials. The website of the university where Roberson claimed she got her advanced degrees \u2013 didn\u2019t work. The students discovered it was an online diploma mill \u2013 not an accredited university. After their story questioning her background was published, the principal resigned.<\/p>\n<p>Almost immediately, the young journalists found themselves in the news. Their story was all over social media, and was reported on by respected members of the Drive-By Media. The kids were shocked, that they got so much attention from big-time news outlets.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s no surprise why these high school journalists were held up for such praise. Their elders in the business were as proud as a mother lion watching her cubs perform their first successful hunt. They didn\u2019t just wound an authority figure, they took her out!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-228381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/00-Rush-Morning-Update.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"137\">Now I have some advice for you high school cub reporters. You\u2019re not real Drive-By journalists yet. Your first \u201cscalp\u201d was somebody who did do something wrong. You found out, and reported it. That no big deal.<\/p>\n<p>What you have to do is find somebody totally innocent, preferably CEO or a mayor or a big figure, and ruin them! You ruin somebody\u2019s interest and that\u2019s your ticket to the Washington Post, the New York Times and CNN.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t doubt me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: An item in the Washington Post this week went viral.
