I have felt for a long time that the saturation of cable "news" channels, who cannot possibly fill their time with "news" is a problem. Today we added another, Al Jazeera. MSNBC basically shut down any conversations on the Mid East until they had resolve on the Zimmerman issue, and believe me, if you read about Al Jazeera, while they are making an effort (spending tons of money) to appear reasonable will join the fray promoting what they want. It is not just these two networks, but nobody reads, searches for what is happening...just find a favorite "talking head" and rely on whatever you are told to be factual, when in reality most of it is not
This constant drone fills our homes 24/7...it appears that most are helpless to get out of the zones somebody put them in, and thus we find ourselves "taking sides" on every issue. It becomes difficult for people to call evil by its name...EVIL. We seem to want or need some "political" approval to condemn it.
