Re: Clueless Mainstrem Media
The mistake made originally by the mainstream media was to take a press release from an unknown group and run with it like it was truth. Yahoo has a certain responsiblity in this, because they don't do a very good job of seperating press releases from news in a manner that can easily be determined without careful reading.
"I saw it on yahoo!".
"according to a report on yahoo!"
A press release could have been issued that said that the government checks were being used to purchase monkey fetuses and blueberries, so that people could make blue monkeys fly out of their butts.
