    And you trust al Jazeera for the truth more than the MSM... depending on which side of the story they report.

    "Truth" is a code word for "Whatever makes the United States of America and/or Conservatives look bad, regardless of how untrustworthy the source is".

    Of course, if the MSM has do ents showing a Republican Presidential candidate may have skipped Military duty in 1970, that's a different story. In that case, it's the independent media and bloggers who are wrong.

    You tell me... You're the one who trusts one and not the other.

    Really? Show me were I place absolute confidence in the reporting by al-Jazeera.

    I never used the words "absolute confidence."

    I believe the following displays a "trust" of al-Jazeera over American Media:

    Wait, nevermind, my mistake... I forgot you thought that was a different al-Jazeera. Point retracted.

    Like I said, if CNN/Faux didn't say it, then it never happened.

    Warden to all his shift leaders. Keep a sharp eye on Nbadan and double
    his suicide watch. He has had some really troubling news lately. You know
    how close he came the last time something like this happened, when Dan
    Rather's reports proved to be all hogwash. Go ahead and double his
    Reynolds wrap. That normally keeps him pretty busy making all the new
    hats.

    What's amazing is that you can't draw a distinction between al-Jazeera and al-Jazeera international, but you can draw a distinction between CNN and Faux which get many of their reports from the same source - the AP.

    Then again, you've never shown that abstract thinking is your niche.

    I know how the Media works, thanks. I don't remember ever arguing that the news reported by Fox News and CNN is different.

    I also know that Fox News doesn't link to CNN's website on their home page.

    The point is that two news outlets can get their 'facts' from the same agency and still present them differently.

    Yes, but that agency is their only affiliation.

    A better comparison would be NBC and MSNBC.

    Only if MSNBC hired a bunch of French reporters and news editors.

    It would still be a closer relationship than Fox and CNN.

    Not if you've seen CNN lately.
