<FONT face="Trebuchet MS">What news sites do you all usually frequent? Basically all I've found that's reliable is putting together your basic facts. For instance:
CNN.com says we have invaded Iraq because the Iraqis are evil.
Iraqi news sites claim the Americans have invaded because Americans are evil.
the Navy's official site says that the 5th and 6th fleets are going on alert.
My Marine buddy suddenly tries to sell me his Playstation 2.
Conclusion: Something is happening in the middle east.
Beyond that do we have any choice in the matter but to be spoon-fed by the media? The Christian Science Monitor is about the least biased, most accurate newsrag I've found to date...any other good ones?</FONT f>
