It's really sad to see what passes for journalism these days, and I'm not just talking about IP.

It's remarkable to me that people who watch Fox News for example are LESS knowledgable than people who don't watch the news at all. The RW have been moving towards this propoganda approach for decades but it seems like it's working it's way into presumed neutral news sites like reuters and the AP as well.
