I really do.

In fact, I bet most of the people posting here do!

We're almost all very likely reading the NYT, the old-guard weekly and monthly political mags, and probably stacks of books (over years and decades) and I hope delving into actual political reports and journal essays, not just blogs.

What I find selective is not the choice of reading material, but who people choose as their scapegoats and smear targets. It's a curious spectacle, to see people who might quote the NYT or AP without caveats, despite these organs' hair-raising histories as propaganda platforms for the military-spook state and corporations, hone in on FDL as the enemy.
