Thank you for the pings.
I am officially ‘gracious.’ It’s in print, so it must be true. ;>
Yeah. You and I agree in our skepticism of the media. What I've tried to do with respect to the Zimmerman/Martin matter has been to try and track down the origin of each 'detail' to the best of my ability. It helps me decide how much faith to put in a detail. When appropriate, I've shared that here. I think knowing the original source of a detail is helpful.
