Media has an agenda (whatever it may be in any particular case), the agenda is always self-serving, therefore biased, therefore needs to be questioned.

We all live in a bubble as far as knowing whats going on in the world. You know 90% of what goes on in your own home, if you live alone. 10% of what goes on next-door and 0% farther than that.

Example: Several years ago I saw US news reports covering Israels assault on Hebron (not the last one). "Our" news reported that an Israeli APC had blocked, then pushed a news van off the road. I watched German and French news on the same subject and SAW the same taped event but with Israeli troops machine-gunning western reporters on a hotel balcony overlooking the fighting, from the same APC, and killing two of them..THEN they pushed the vehicle out of the road.

You get the "news" that the media wants you to get so they can control the views of the people. No matter how much you "know", you know nothing.

what i think is purely a matter of what electronic signals get transmitted in my very personal and unique neural tissue. i can even make stuff up out of wild fantasies and things never before experienced by myself or anyone else either!

It's based on fact the media tells me. I try to weed through the opinions. I can't be everywhere in the world at one time, so I rely on the media to report news to me. Most of the time, world news has no effect (on me), so it doesn't matter if it's completely accurate or not as long as I know a major event occured.

I've got a word or two
To say about the things that you do
You're telling all those lies
About the good things that we can have
If we close our eyes

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you

I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you have in mind
And though you still can't see
I know your mind's made up
You're gonna cause more misery

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you

Although your mind's opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake
The future still looks good
And you've got time to rectify
All the things that you should

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you

Do what you want to do
And go where you're going to
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you
Think for yourself
'Cause I won't be there with you

I believe everything I see on TV. And I believe everything Obama says. I'm like one of those zombies on "The Mummy" that walk around chanting "Im-ho-tep...Im-ho-tep...Im-ho-tep".

example: If i want to buy a new DVD, I rely on the people's opinion, not the commercials.

It's the same deal when it comes forging my opinion about anything or anyone.
