This is what I was responding to.
"stupid press created "scandals" such as Enron, prison abuse, Halliburton"

Considering you just said
"BTW, the prison abuse was not authorized by our government, it was being investigated before the media brouhaha erupted."
You have just validated my point...it was not 'press created'.

Thanx for backing me up dude.

Next time you might want to read what I was responding to first.

Yes, the frenzy certainly was "press created". They acted like there was a government cover-up. They acted like the treatment was authorized from "up the chain of command". There was a whole circus created thanks to the deceptive reporting of the press. They still try to beat the story along, but it has long since died.

Thanx for backing me up dude.

At this point I hope you realize I did not back you up, man.
