Thus, my philosophy of "Get as much news from as many sources available, sort through all the crap, and make the decision yourself of what is reported correctly, and what isn't."
Good example was mentioned today on the Howie Carr show. When Clinton was running for re-election in 1996, a 5.5% Unemployment rate was good for the country. In 2004, with Bush running for re-election, a 5.5% Unemployment issue was a big issue for Dan & Co.
He got caught over and over again, their credibility and ratings (News Wise) are in the tank. Better to run CSI re-runs at 6:30
