...Chicago offer particularly striking support of this idea. Who struck first, and why, and with what motives, and who offered the provocation and who allowed himself to be provoked-these and a thousand other questions cannot be answered with machine-like neutrality by the reporter's eye and mind; the proper recording of each fact requires a dozen judgments and thus opinions.

...Vietnam War does go on, it is immoral and murderous, and the Beatles have never spoken up about it. Sometimes institutions are repressive and rooted themselves in violence and indecency (yet the Beatles sneer, 'You say its-the institution/Well you know you better free your mind instead').
