I've
been amusing myself perusing the picture galleries that abound.
These (rollover) were from Acid Cow under the heading News Stories That Will
Test Your Faith in Humanity. And they certainly do; albeit
not in the way intended. While I'm mining this vein, here's a Facebook post
I snipped a while back. I followed
the source for documentation which led to, as I remember, a
quote from some MSNBC slug; that is to say—no
documentation. As
foolish as all this is, there's a substantial audience who make
decisions based on this sort of disinfo. Where's the joy to be found
in this environment? |
An amazing number of people make decisions using subjective info, citing the 'fact' that that's how they feel.

That's a fact, Tim.
ReplyDeleteAnother data point: a surprising number of people use Jon Stewart for their primary source of news and information. Least ways, it's surprising if you haven't been to the mall or watched over 30-seconds of MTV lately.
