Folks, you can't have your cake and eat it too. In the real world, nobody is going to be perfectly objective, not yourself and certainly not any figurehead in the media. That's just a pipe dream. If you have a mind of your own, it is your own responsibility to determine what is worth listening to and taking as fact. If there are some people you don't like, then so be it. Some people are going to appeal to you, and others might turn to different sources. It all harps back to the simple fact that human intelligence and perception hinges on a SUBJECTIVE reality.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go invest in some gold and watch more of Glenn Beck .
Sure, and I've determined that ideologues such as O'Reilly are not worth listening to. So what are you complaining about again?
