"At some point it becomes a complete waste of time to read the MSM."

It certainly does.FR is the No1 news site as far as I'm concerned.

You not only hear it more often than not first,you also get to see it picked apart to within an inch of it's life.

As soon as you start looking at the world a little further than the end of your own nose the sooner you realize the MSM is little more than gruel for the mind.

and gruel gives me the $h!t$

FR is the No 1 news site as far as I'm concerned.

FR has become my first place on the web to go each time I log on. When there is a breaking news story, I can find all there is to know on FR. No longer do I have to sort through commercials, know-nothing talking heads, etc. I can simply log on to FR and participate in analysis and commentary with people all over the world.

As a computer type I have been doing the Internet since there were only 12 sites, WOW that was a long time ago. But the net started as a way for collaborative research to be done between scientists.

Now sites like FR are doing the research on just about everything. Not science, but research nonetheless. The promise of the original Internet is being fulfilled. It's a good thing, as MS would say. The funny part is the MSM is becoming just so much day old road kill. Bloggers are taking over as columnists. You read who you like, not who the MSM chooses to print. It's easy to distill real hard news from the trash you get in the wires.

When people collaborate on subjects you simply get the most reasoning power that can be brought to bear on a subject. A varied audience like FR is ideal because of the diversity of participants. There might just be some life left in the 'ole US Republic yet.
