Though we were young in those days, I had a feeling that they were lying much of the time. Talking to older cousins and older brothers of a few friends who had been in Vietnam, I had it from the horse's mouth, the media was clueless even then.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-12908413988675076572012-12-18T15:52:58.543-08:002012-12-18T15:52:58.543-08:00I haven't watched MSM for years, I've alwa...I haven't watched MSM for years, I've always been working at newstime, which is a blessing. When I read the morons on the op-ed page it makes me want to shred the paper. It seems we cant let these people mourn & grieve their losses, lets sensationalize everything to point of nausea while we blame guns, NRA, et al. tiring & sickening...Greg Peaveynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-58178306442978623272012-12-18T11:27:19.433-08:002012-12-18T11:27:19.433-08:00I have been semi-boycotting the MSM news outlets f...I have been semi-boycotting the MSM news outlets for quite some time now. I wait until I hear something which could be interpreted as a fact, i.e. someone, somewhere saw or heard something. Then I head on out to the innertubz to see what I can see (sort of the bear went over the mountain, if you get my drift). From multiple sources I can discern: What happened, where did it happen, who did it happen to. Then I can determine whether or not I am affected (which includes extended family and friends) or whether it is just "something which has happened which is either good or bad". That way I can ignore/avoid all of the editorial spin which apparently so called "news-people" think constitutes reporting. To put it in simple terms: I turn on the B.S. filter.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-34988646010492407972012-12-18T09:50:12.591-08:002012-12-18T09:50:12.591-08:00I'm gonna boycott the news for the rest of thi...I'm gonna boycott the news for the rest of this week. I sat down to watch the PBS Newshour (I've been a regular viewer of the show since 1983) and HAD to turn it off after about ten minutes, all because of what you've said here.<br /><br />Disgusting.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.com
