Re: Yet another in a long line of zero-credibility Web sites made available by Michael Cummings. They say you need to specialize to succeed in modern America. Poor Michael's Alamanac is specialized, but he's closer to suck-sepsis than success.

As I've repeatedly said here, if you cannot defend the message (in this case clear examples of media bias), then the only thing left to do is attack the messenger, or the source of the message. A few days ago you asked for specific events in the news which demonstrated a "Big Media Bias". And I've gone out of my way to provide, not only precise examples, but an entire web-site devoted to the issue. Contained within that website is literally hundreds of examples of media bias, they are so clear it's irrefutable to anyone with an open objective mind. The fact that you fear being exposed to it and challenging the assumptions you've lived with for so long, demonstrates your inability to critically think about an issue. Additionally, the fact that Ray has joined you in singing this hymn of praise regarding your post, demonstrates his inability to critically think too. Instead of dealing with the information, you've elected to attack the source. Now, let's think about this flapjack...Do you really think the same Big Media which presents the news in a biased way, would openly report on the bias and criticially examine themselves? Of course the source is going to come from a different perspective. What did you expect? Does the military report on military expediture abuses? Does the FBI report on FBI foulups? Or does the information instead come from whistle-blowers, or other news organizations and such?
