Who Can You Trust

It would seem that another day after Thanksgiving has come and gone; lucky for Walmart, no one was killed. I have written before about the stupidity of getting up from a well induced turkey coma to go looking for the best bargain on something.Stupid, stupid, stupid. But all of that just made me think of the media and their "unbiased" reporting of information. Now, depending on your political persuasion, you may not be comfortable with certain outlets and their opinions in the news. As for me, I do not believe CNN if they tell me it is raining, unless of course, I have walked outside and verified the wetness. The same goes for MSNBC, they are laughably the most biased of the news channels available. I watch FOX if I have to find out what is going on. I imagine that they are biased, but they have a right leaning bias, so I'm okay with that. They used to have a wonderful program on, it was Rush Limbaugh, and he showed you things that other news outlets didn't and wouldn't show. My all time favorite-slick willie laughing his stupid head off until he saw the camera out of the corner of his eye. Then, in a one hundred and eighty egree turn, hde gently wiped the tear from his eye. What a Jackass. But other things that Fox showed me that no one else bothered to show me were what made me watch them first when I needed to know something. I like Sean Hannity. That sycophant that put him with, not so much. But that's what a mute button is for, isn't it? Any way, the point is, I like Fox, I trust them to tell me the news without giving me a left leaning spin on it. I liked Lou Dobbs, but I could never stomach sitting though CNN to watch him. I wish him luck in whatever he does next. But back to who I trust. After listening to so many "reporters" gleefully read me The memo that W had pulled favors in his service record, I was the gleeful one when it turns out to be one great big piece of fraud. Where was the government to regulate that? They sure are quick enough to have hearings when someone in the MLB is using the juice, but for something that actually matters, strangely silent. You can't trust any of them 100% anymore, so here is a thought. Watch a little bit of everything. Find the one who tells the most truth-not just what you want to hear. Then watch that person most of the time, but save a little room for the rest of the stuff they are saying. It never hurts to get both sides. You'll thank me later.
