But you know what..if they're screwing up the local stories, we have to be cautious about the bigones too.

They get their local stories from local people.

I have to kinda chuckle about this. People come on Free Republic and post some pretty outrageous stuff and it's swallowed whole.

It pays to be cautious, but I just can't stand the editorial slant of CNN and MSNBC on many stories. The one major exception was CNN's reporting of the Columbia disaster; it was head-and-shoulders above everybody else, I hear; I never left CNN's coverage during that day.

WRT:locals reporting.. That's true too..but the national was so in a hurry to beat msnb, because during that particular story I referenced, on the same day..they were running nose to nose trying to cover it....they shot themselves in the foot by reporting too quickly. It was odd..

Speaking of cnn, our local fox station, I rarely watch--they are fox, yet use CNN's breaking news more often than fox..now why is that? YIKES They have tv monitors showing fox national news channel running in the background too.
