[QUOTE="NoRemorse13"] You're the uninformed one. You basically just agreed with everything I said. People will tune into celebrity news because T.V. is saturated with it. Everywhere you look from reality T.V. shows to talk shows. And you wonder why many teens and adults dress, act, and eat like these people? When is the last time you heard a media outlet question the government? Almost never. When is the last time you heard about Paris Hilton making a sex tape? So yes, the media wants you to know what they will allow you to know.
As for your other point about getting more than one source, unfortunately, many people are too lazy to do this. This is whywe have presidential campaigns and presidential T.V. advertisements that explain why you should vote for this person or this person. Anyone that does research knows that Hillary, Huckabee, and Romney voted to raise takes in their respective state, however, they tell you that they didn't and people perceive it to be true. Romney was originally pro-choice and admitted it when he got caught. Back in 2003, John McCain was hated by many conservatives for questioning the strategy in Iraq and the president. Now he is considered the front-runner for the nomination after winning NH? It looks like people have forgotten about 2003. The point is that most people don't do their own research and they depend on T.V. to do it for them.
As for the abolishment for federal programs, programs that has helped this country run itself into debt to the point we are borrowing from China, eliminating them is the only way to curtail this problem. Put the education system back in the hands of the states and instead of funding inept programs like No Child Left Behind, which rewards teachers in suburban schools and punishes those in inner-city schools. The stock market took a triple digit plunge again. Why? Housing and credit market caused by the artificial inflation by the Federal Reserve? And their solution is to print more money and lower interest rates again. Again, research is key.

I didn't agree with you. :| And I believe I said they need to research themselves. Did you read my post?
