That has already occurred in the past Claudio. I'm surprised you haven't seen it yet. The reaction is not usually the same for everyone. In some cases, an individual is angry that the comments were not backed up with evidence. In other cases, the individual will demand an interview or an investigation to verify if it is true or false. Still in other cases, the individual will assume it is true (hard to believe) because they heard it on the radio, on tv, or read it in print. People sometimes have a difficult time separating 'facts' from editorial comments (opinion) too and don't pay attention to which is which. I think the varied responses are so different because Americans are often very different from each other. I have never seen anyone expelled from the country (referring to foreigners in this case) or fired from their company though unless they knowingly spread false information (slander - they get fired or in the case of the NY Times journalist where he fabricated news stories and interviews and sources, etc). That is a different thing from reporting that accusations of certain conduct have arisen...

I neglected to add also that there will always be those that will never believe anything 'negative' about the person they voted for, their family, or their friends even when proof exists. At times, they will claim the proof was manufactured if it goes against their thinking...

>>>But did the U.S. expel any journalists for their reporting on President Clinton? I don't remember it happening...

>I don't know what happened to those guys. I'm just wondering... let's say a guy goes on a TV show or whatever (anything that there's millions of Americans watching, besides people for other countries...), and the interviewer asks the guy: "so, sounds like our President is having problems with this, this and that... what do you think of that?"... and the guy's answer is: "I think he's smoking weed!". What would happen to that guy? How would people react to that?

>would the guy be sued, arrested, or what?
