I will read those. They sound almost as funny as the Whole Foods posts I read yesterday. If you haven't seen the amazingly stupid posts by the CEO of Whole Foods, you have a treat in store.

I agree with you about the guy from CNN. No excuse for that, or any of the other numerous mistakes that have been made.

I watch the News Hour and ITN news, which I like, and then I get the rest of my news on the net- chasing down the things that interest me.

I wonder if the veggie thing was another creation of the media? It's so hard to trust any of the more fantastical stories. I wish there was one source you could trust, but I'm afraid there probably is not. (actually that's one of the things I like about the Newshour- the multiple points of view on the main stories. I feel you get more of the whole story, when you see the parties struggling over "the truth"- which often seems to lie somewhere in the middle)

That was very funny!

I think this has to be my favorite line- although there are many worthy lines:
