We have lazy people who believe slanted truths every day and it's almost by osmosis. Just look at the slanted reporting of the evening news. It's so slanted sometimes it's almost a work of fiction and look how polarized it's made this country.

i honestly worry less about left or right leaning media than i do about how pervasive advertising is becoming from what are supposed to be news outlets - it's *really* bad here in SoCal. i can tolerate just about any sort of opinion, so long as there's thought behind it - even if it challenges what i believe. it's the sort of vapid, vacuous people that you're mentioning of whom i expect next to nothing and tend to receive just that. i'm not going to spend a lot of time worrying about TDVC winning such converts...the next shiny new conspiracy theory will be along soon enough to turn their attention.
