go organic, get a water filter, quit the meds. i honestly suspect those are the roots of the problem, intentionally or by happenstance.

And I'm curious why all the questions about "Americans" which have been posted in vaguely backhanded and insulting phrases.
Most of those in this country who do have confidence in network news do so because it used to be a bastion of integrity. It used to be fair, imbued with integrity and make attempts to balance it's opinions and perspective. The slide to the oblique is coming only slowly to the public as a realisation.

.... for the phrasing of my questions, but I leave it as an exercise of the reader to figure it out.

... I'd be interested in what you think I expect or what message I was trying to convey, and what you think could go wrong.
Send a PM if you want to :)

6. Journalism is to be trusted? |
|
So I voted for the one that Americans believe what they hear.
Great poll, because I think this is why more and more people are trusting the blogs more. The media has every reason to be worried about us :dem:

7. You think people are starting to get away from the news? |
|
It would be nice, and it could make the difference.
