See folks, proof that you see and hear what you want to see and hear

What do you see and hear? Where do you get information that you even trust a little? If you trust none of it you might as well watch the Cartoon Network and log on to Party Poker.

Okay, take a step back Mike. I have absolutely no idea how you got off on that tangent above from my original post telling people that lately FoxNews has been jumping the gun on reporting some things without any verification, which they have.

First off, just because I say that does not mean I now trust the Slimes, Post, etc. It means exactly what I said: That Fox sometimes jumps the gun on some stories, just like everyone else. It does not mean they are fabricating stories, like the supposed main stream media does!

Secondly: Just because FNC is doing that does not negate much of their other reporting. It just means take the reporting of seemingly outlandish stories (like doctors performing euthanasia in the Superdome) with a grain of salt. I would still trust them more than any other non-internet outlet.

How you got to me not trusting any news source at all (except Cartoon Channel, very clever) from that post is beyond me. You are reading things that are not there. Your interpretation techniques are flawed.

Oh, and BTW, I get most of my news from the Internet and mainly from this site.

Now, I cannot wait to see how you interpret the words above this time!
