You criticism of Zero Hedge is totally without merit. They are excellent and often break major news the MSM tries to censor and sit on.

I disagree with that appraisal of Zero Hedge--many of their pieces are tendentious, fatuous and sensational in the worst way. The article that you posted earlier and heavily criticized was sourced from zerohedge, not the "MSM"--here is the source line at the bottom of the post:

Obviously we have a difficult time communicating with each other. I won't bore the board with it any longer.

The zerohedge article you posted claiming 75% drop in US gasoline consumption is typical of ZH articles and proves Sam's point.

The article relies on real data, the retail sales of US refiners, and then pretends that these data represent the total US gasoline retail sales. It is typical ZH. Refiner retail gasoline sales, as you well know, are a small fraction of total refiner gasoline sales.
