If you aren't sure that I not only doubt, but dismiss, any notion of credibility where the aforementioned sites are concerned: why did you previously try to impress upon me the number of sites containing the specified search terms?

You asked me which sites were doubting the authenticity of the bin Laden confessional tape and I reported to you the number of sites that Google found. Hardly a matter of trying to impress you, considering that a number of those will be duplicates and others will be polemic hotbeds.

As for ascertaining credibility of news sites, I am a deeply suspicious consumer. I rarely watch or listen to mainstream broadcast media, since at best, they are little more than infotainment and at worst, administration megaphones.

But I see the matter of the bin Laden confessional tape as slightly different. It takes no faith in the presenter for a viewer to compare the two men's pics and decide that they are most likely not the same person.
