Plenty. You've never seen footage from a surveilance cam? They're all over the place, what planet are <i>YOU</i> living on??

If you'd read my posts instead of compiling nonsense, you'd understand that I specifically said that all reporting is open to being bias in some way. Not all reporting IS bias, but for example, a lot of newspaper columns are, because they are rife with the personal opinions of the writer.

I never said all news agencies were jokes. What I DID say is that <i>IF</i> a news agency is found to have reported something inaccurately they would lose a lot of credibilyt, something which is of course the lifeblood of the serious news sources.

I'm on Earth, what planet are you on?
