What can I say? I'm grateful that the internet will allow some of us to be exposed to some very dark secrets that will never see the light of day by the masses. When I put up the Reason article on the revision of history by academics, I knew I would get to you. :>) "Perhaps the most obvious political effect of controlled news is the advantage it gives powerful people in getting their issues on the political agenda and defining those issues in ways likely to influence their resolution." - W. Lance Bennett “Most people nurture the facts that confirm their world view and ignore or marginalize the ones that don't, unable to achieve enough emotional detachment from their own political passions to see the world as it really is.” - David Brooks “I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.” - Galileo Galilei.
