For what seems like forever, I’ve found myself:
1) See a headline on any msm source
2) Verify using internet sources
3) Verify THOSE sources
4) Firmly establish yet again that the original headline is purest crap on a stick
More and more, JMHO, the major casualty in the ‘12 elections is going to be the msm. Or whatever’s left of it by that time.
If the Montana version of the msm is any example, they’re bleeding circulation and credibility already to the point that they can’t even give their printed product away, they’re most likely surviving only on printing jobs for snailmail advertisers and their websites have become almost ghost towns. (The Billings paper was supposed to have been flirting with requiring payment to view their website, but I heard that the setup costs would have been more than their wildest imagined number of hits could justify and the notion just kinda faded off into the wind.)
Couldn’t happen to more deserving ****s.
Every time the msm pushes one of their “stories”, I can hear the ghosts of REAL journalists cry out in pain.

I heard this morning the lottery winner, who won’t share the ticket with her McDonald’s co-workers, is a single mother with 7 kids.
