I myself do not involve myself in politics. For many reasonsâ€¦..but for the most part, I feel that no matter what I read or see from â€œourâ€

It looks rather intresting. I didn't have time to read through it, and find the bias...because I'm sure it's there. Anything that involves the media, or governemnt is sure to have a little bit of it.

Want to know why I don't believe a thing I hear on the news....
My dad died about 5 years ago in a motorcycle wreck. He had dropped his bike and was sliding across the street when a cop came around a blind curve and ran over him. My dad was killed instantly. Although there was no fault on either party for this wreck (it was really an accident), the local news media, having nothing else to do that day, caught wind of the accident and showed up at the scene. A friend of mine showed up at the funeral home for the viewing and was asking what happened. Apparently the news reporter, knowing nothing about the circumstances of the wreck, reported that "a man on a motorcycle had hit a police officer." My question-if my dad, the man on the motorcycle, actually hit the cop, why was it my dad was the one in a casket? This completely turned my stomach and I haven't believed anything I hear on TV since then....take everything with a grain of salt, there's always a spin.

Exactly! BTW....sorry for your loss. That sucks. I cant say that I can relate completely. I did have a close friend brutally murdered some years back, and the media blamed it on witchcraft and some other fucked up shit, which had nothing to do with it......

That site seems very cool. I hate how the media is filtered for stupid americans...like they assume because they don't really give a fuck about poor peeps in other countries, we don't either...

We don't hear nearly enough of the atrocities in other countries because...they assume I guess "what do rich white americans care...we've been trying to kill off all the brown people for centuries"...

Grrrrrr.

*shakes fist*

I hate being angry about things that it seems are hopeless to change and feeling you really can't do anything.
