I can't believe that this thread is still running. Oh well, it just goes to show you that what we believe is largely determined by who (or what) news sources we regularly consume. Who you believe to be credible is what you will ultimately believe to be true. The world view on PBS or NBC is going to be largely different from the perspective on Fox News or even on Bill O'Reilly's No-Spin News. Moreover, the dinosaur media systems (ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, etc.) have squandered most of their credibility and are now shedding viewers at an incredible clip, accordingly they are becoming more shrill with every passing day (fear sells facetime). The sky is indeed falling, eh? The recent news-room layoffs even made the national news yesterday.

We're at the point to where you just have to sit back and let it all happen (at least I am). This next year is going to be a bumpy ride. Buckle-up.
