It is all fodder. From FOX to CNN to MSNBC. ABC, CBS, and NBC all regurgitate the talking points. No one does any real reporting anymore. The only way to really get the news is to have several bookmarked sources to check every day on the www.

Scott,
It's strange but he makes a great point. This whole sound byte/news magazine/tabloid/Couric culture of news oversimplifies the news.

I see the biggest practitioner of this type of news as Fox.

You're right, I do agree. Unfortunately, I believe the days of real news, like it was up until about '79, are all over - probably for good.

I can't believe that this guy said something I actually agree with.

Call me a bigot if you like but Mormons are nuts. Magic underwear, multiple wives, inbreeding. He would turn this country into Jonestown.

And anyway (and you may even agree on this point), I'm so sick of this "rock star" coverage that Hillary and Obama are getting. What has happened to real reporting? I could care less whether Obama is "black enough." I would like to hear about the real issues.

And just so you know, US_Infidel, not all of us in the Democratic Party support Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. My money's on John Edwards.

If the GOP would purge the party of the religious loons and the neo-con warmongers, I MIGHT give it a second look. Until then, I will NEVER vote GOP!

I am really enjoying the Republican implosion!

Which implosion is that? Oh, you mean the Hitlery/Osama mud fest. Yeah, you're right. We're really enjoying that! :)
