I was listening to C-Span a couple of days ago, and want to report the following statistics. In 1970 20% of the Americans thought that they trusted the US Military to do the right thing, now the number is 75%. On the other hand, 70% of the public in 1970 trusted the media, and now it is 20%. This tells a whole story of the hippies, any comment.

Telling stats indeed.

..any comment.

The statistical inversion that you cite makes sense to me, having lived and watched it all with proximity and interest. The built -in prejudice of the media is being exposed for what it is; a part of one particular political party. The armed forces have improved from the good ol' boy system of the conscripted services to the professional armed forces that we have now.
