Seems to me you told me that Good Morning America and Nightline are credible sources.

Never happened.

Just because the media is questionable does NOT mean that blogs, therefor, ARE credible.

Take the media with a grain of salt, take blogs with a whole spoon full.

So it seems like maybe MSM ANALYSIS is credible, and everything else is just chat, bunk, or whatever.

Analysis of what?

GMA and Nightline belong in “news”. Unless what is on GMA and Nightline is being further scrutinized; then it doesn’t. And you haven’t made it your life’s mission to chew people out for posting content that’s in “news” - only for posting content that’s not in the “news”.

I don’t know if you’ve ever said why this eyewitness account, for instance, could be posted without harassment from you if it was posted under the “Good Morning America” filter, but would automatically be trash if it was published independently - like, say, on a blog.

Why is that, HG? If none of it is credible, then why single out only the things not endorsed by the MSM? Do you consider the source on this thread’s article to be credible? Why or why not? Your buddies have already accused a long-time Freeper of blog-pimping and implied that the eyewitness report of this Vietnam vet who rose to the call of duty in NV is trash. Why? Why are real people fit to be trashed for speaking up, while the MSM people get a free pass to say all they want without harassment here?

And what’s sad is that the people piping up the loudest to ridicule and belittle the normal people who speak up with the information they have... are the same people who are on the Freepathon threads telling us we should contribute so we can “resist tyranny”.

Makes no sense.
