Thanks DG I was really getting disgusted with what I was reading. Guess I should know better then to take the junk journalists seriously.
It's really hard not to take the junk journalists seriously. The information that refutes them is not blasted in our faces every day.
They're not always wrong, and they're usually right on factual reporting on disasters or other actual incidents. Little credible evidence that disputes their reporting on those types of things ever emerges from any source.
But on political issues, both domestically and abroad, it's a totally different story. It's what they report and how they report it. If it doesn't sound right, it probably isn't. It may take some digging to find out the real story, but FR generally will have already done that for you before you start.
That's the power of this forum.
