Great LTTE pissing contest about Faux news in local paper
The Sun-Herald of Gulfport has a few letters this am about how good/bad, trustworthy/worthless faux news is. One line from an anti-faux ltte that caught my eye - "In my opinion, when you hear the words liberal bias what the person saying them really means is "I can't take the truth. Lie to me to justify my fear.""

This from a letter writer in back woods Mississippi. Nothing but the truth.

1. Just 'cause they live in shacks and scratch when it itches
doesn't make 'em stupid. Far from it. You have to have a certain native intelligence to survive most poverty.

Some remarkable LTTEs come from incredibly poor towns in the mountains of this state, NM.

The stupidest people in the world live in walled suburbs and have 4 year degrees and haven't read anything since college but TV Guide, the sports pages, and People Magazine.

That's the GOP base.
