Karen, res-<<I would also hope that at least a few people who frequent non-traditional news sources have learned that life's issues aren't all black and white. >>

Traditional news sources give practically the same perspective on issues such as these. The lazy paraphrasing is mindless diatribe to me. Oh sure, they typically cloak it under educratic language which gives a false appearance of balance. But the conclusions and examinations are oftentimes the same. Disagreement, in the venue of ideas, is that hallmark of a free society. And I for one am glad Hillary didn't get her wish a few years ago to "control" news via the internet.

Black and white answers are the foundation upon which sound-bite news rests.
