Most people in this country only give half an ear to the news and will agree with the slant "Katie," "Matt," or "Oprah" give to the story.

Just for curiosity, why do you put quotation marks around celebs' names? Are you indicating that those are pseudonyms?

Ooh, you naughty girl, you share my distaste for misuse of quotation marks!

Like signs with the word "Sale," in quotation-marks. Quoting whom? Or is it not really a sale?

And do you also share my dislike of the use of the word "quote" (a verb) when "quotation" ( a noun) is meant?

"Dan"
