"...if the TV folks delivered real news instead of pap, we wouldn't be surfing all these places."

And we wouldn't be putting our fingers up to see which direction the wind is blowing all the time either;)

We just recognize the media's snow job for what it is. Most folks are either too obtuse, too vegged out on the couch or too busy to connect the dots.

Another concern about the TV news is the slanted agenda of those who purport to be unbiased in their presentation of the news. They skew their wording so it is assimilated by the viewer to raise doubt concerning politicians with whom they are not aligned. My sources on internet news have always been accurate, non-biased and usually much faster than any TV news commentator anyway. Also, there are stories on the net that never appear on any news broadcast. The idea that the networks pick and choose what is NEWS to us, is a bit unsettling as well.

The spin is on realstrong in the Spain bombings, isn't it?

Ignore the numerous AQ threats, ignore bombings all over the world, ignore the MO and masscarnage that goes against ETA's prior bombings.

Even if a joint ETA-AQ op, the carnage, timing and target shows AQ, IMO.

Spain has cracked down HARD on jihadis and supported the US. They were targets in Iraq, too.

But, the media is spinning hard and already starting to focus back on the important stuff(!).

I am patiently awaiting the next "lash." I know it will happen, I just hoped it would have happened already so we could shut the libs up and flatten the terrorists and their harborers once and for all. (Unless of course the "lash" -- whether terrorist or divine -- takes us all out and America exists no more... That is certainly what the jihadis are counting on.)
