I could confess to reading MSM a whole lot quicker than reading sensationalism at it`s best in the rags I`ve seen quoted lately

This one is a real gem:

National Enquirer | Gossip Cop
Top Stories. WATCH: Gwyneth Paltrow Grabs Guest's Crotch on The Graham Norton Show; Zooey Deschanel Mistakenly ID'd as Boston Bombing Suspect By Closed Captioning www.gossipcop.com/tag/national-enquirer

I also watch/listen though as with all media my viewpoint is critical/skeptical. Unlike rush, who brags that he NEVER reads a newspaper but feels qualified to disscuss and DISS then i like to see who is saying what.

Any reporter has a viewpoint (as everyone does) and a boss to answer to. This is a good thing and a bad thing too, one needs to be a very critical thinker...

I do not trust those who listen to one side and/or get their views from the very slanted Drudge Report.

Just heard rush giving out some "info" and claiming "you won't find this anywhere else"...which sounds like he must have made it up completely, else HE must have found it SOMEwhere, right?

In a similar vein, AP said this today about compromised info:
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Twitter accounts for two national CBS programs have been compromised and suspended.

A CBS News spokeswoman confirms Saturday that tweets sent earlier in the afternoon from the "60 Minutes" and "48 Hours" Twitter handles saying their accounts were compromised are correct.

The tweets said the network is working with Twitter to investigate. On Saturday night both accounts were suspended and inaccessible.

Twitter did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The CBS spokeswoman didn't comment further.

Earlier in the day tweets coming from the 60 Minutes account seemed farfetched, including one that claimed the US government was "hiding the real culprit of the Boston bombing."
Sound familiar?
