Full of crap? Y'mean, like the TV, newspapers, magazines, and movies?

No, like the Internet as it is. Like the stories we see pasted here from
the
partisan "news" sites. If a commercial news organization tried those
stunts
they'd be crucified and probably would be run out of business.


Like CBS and Dan Rather?

Dan Rather is gone, and CBS apologized for not paying closer attention to
what was going on.


The Slimes?

What are "the Slimes"? It sounds like your favorite Web sites and blogs.


Exploding gas tanks?

The network apologized, and, to quote: "The following Dateline NBC producers
were dismissed: Jeff Diamond, executive producer; David Rummel, senior
producer; and Robert Read, producer of the report on the pickups. Michele
Gillen, the reporter involved in the segment, was transferred to Miami
station WTVL. Michael G. Gartner, president of the news division, resigned
under pressure."


Alar?

What about it? It's banned by the EPA, and the World Health Organization
concurs that it poses an unacceptable risk in children.

That's not to say that the agriculture industry, after paying millions for
PR agencies to muddy the waters, didn't create quite a stir. But you're over
your head on this one, Gunner. If you have any "cites," make sure they're
peer-reviewed, because most of it is junk perpetuated by right-wing industry
apologists.

In contrast, what's happened to the people who fed you the stuff about the
CCW law in Texas? Any apologies for publishing misleading information? Any
firings?

No? Gee, what a surprise.
