The ABC interviews you pointed out, reveal the truth of the situation. Despite the reporter's best efforts to twist the story, the people spoke the truth.

Right. But this begs the question: Why are so many here willing to hear this and run with it with no questions asked?

I'm disappointed with NewsMax for running with this story. We have other things that demonstrate that this mindset, if it exists in a percentage as high as the MSM says it is, is not 100% across the board.

I sure can't answer that question.

I met quite a few Minnesota Freepers at a picnic last Sunday, and most, if not all, are as distrustful of the media as I am.

As for NewsMax running this story, yes it's disappointing, but much of what they run is disappointing. I've become quite dismissive of anything from NewsMax. They're kind of like an annoying gnat to me anymore. And yes, I know I don't HAVE to read their articles. What's that expression about stopping to watch a train wreck....? LOL

Because of the irrational fear and hatred that the Left has for the Right that they've been saturating the media with for the last forty years.
