Right. This guy doesn't get it. We refresh ourselves daily. Voices among us who are too radical or not sharp enough will be ignored.
In the MSM they keep their jobs for years... just because they toed the network line. They are slow to react and regularly off the truth.
The "blogosphere" is faster and is self correcting. FR is not a blog per se but it is more because of the span and reach of body of the users. The members are what makes it strong.
So I trust FR far more than the MSM. News is faster and the truth is generally found out quickly. I genuinely feel bad for those who don't know about FR.

That's right. Try posting inaccurate information here, and see how many seconds it is before somebody corrects you. You couldn't get away with citing the wrong name for Alexander the Great's horse here.
