But the cause of it's not the issue, it's the willingness to consider the souce in conjunction with the message and to seek out sources you feel hold the most water. And much of the media has lost the cache it once had in this area I don't know if it's as much the media being strong and choosing that out of their many options as it's a combo of being declawed by their sponsors into being a glorified commercial.

They are in some kind of conspiracy to keep us uninformed. I know it's not a conspiracy, but just catering to our needs and wants so they can maximize profits. But it's downright sad. Why on election day, and the weeks leading up to it, does the local news do such a poor job of letting people know that something important is going on? I've really stopped watching local and national TV news. I stopped after 9/11 when all our news was just so subjective and obvioulsy slanted and biased. I switched to BBC news and wow! What a difference. Like, it's simply amazing that they actually report on stuff and give you facts and are objective.. it's simply incredible and something I reccomend to everyone when I talk to them.
