Help me out here. I have some idea of what I'm dealing with if say a story is attributed to Rush Limbaugh or Robert Novak. Doesn't mean I'll refuse to believe the story, just that I know where the probabilities are. I'm not all that familiar with the Daily Telegraph, although Google tells me it is quite conservative and has been so since the second Disraeli Admin. So just what "weight factor" should I give to a guy named Con that writes in the Telegraph? Is this more Likudnik nonsense? Let's remember that Kay was sure that the WMDs were in Iraq until he had to "put up or shut up" - i.e. his prediction track record implies a propensity toward being gullible to RW conspiracy beliefs.

Just saying that getting the truth from some sources is a challenge.
