You mean the liberal government is using the liberal media to further its agenda? You have to be kidding.
I know it's hard to believe right ?

Well, at least FOX has Gutfeld. I hope they turn him loose again on this nonsense. Problem is, he's only on at 3AM.Fox news just had (11:55 AM) the most damning report I have seen so far. It was based on the article in this thread but reported that there were 1,350 calls to Poison Contol in 2013 concerning ecigs. Also reported is that one individual died from "rubbing up against something with a 10% nic solution". Reported that study out of San Francisco last week reports that e cigs in no way aid in efforts to stop smoking cigarettes. And, of course, Dr. Segal said they must move quickly to regulate and they should not be avalaiable without a doctor involved.
I have been a big supporter of Fox news but this finishes me.

They had a report on the morning show the other day that annoyed the crap out of me too. Hasselbeck shaking her head and waxing maudlin about children and flavorings, because she (and her ilk) have to fill 4+ hours of time talking about dozens subjects with which she only has the scarcest acquaintance.
It's why the near 'redundant' and so ridiculously obvious: 'the children are our future' line works so well. Our schools use it all the time, even when they are the ones that are dumbing down the children and creating robots (rather than thinking human beings) who will react to the same PR lines and fantasies when they're adults........... unless Reality intervenes Which btw, is why Tina won Survivor and Elizabeth H. (and Colby) didn't
Another part of the problem was touched on above. News used to be on three channels and had 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes to one hour in the evening. They only had time to talk about somewhat important stuff. Now we have multiple channels that need content to fill up 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. They will jump on anything. There was also a time when journalists (remember those) would not dare use a story unless it had been verified. Their reputation and credibility was at stake. Well, that's an issue for another thread.
