  1. Re:Confidence Level on Wing Seals Blamed in Columbia's Demise · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately, I would have to say a lack of faith in reporting, let alone the system, is justified. Today reporting is no longer a calling, but a high stress job. Reporters go for shock teatment to grab attention and sell stories, and in this blind rush, often invetagation is forgoten. As a result, the often complacent masses who read these articals become inspired and decide to protest and raise Kane. Yet only having half the information, those who take the time to protest without proper investagation become fanatics, but I degress. Those in power benifit from this sort of disinformation and often will not even try to stop it. This distraction through such missuse of our rights distracts us form any affairs other than our own imagined needs. Those precious few who do ask the important questions often are overshadowed and lost in the mayhem that is the system, and their voices become but a wisper. The key is listening to those few in addition to the fanatics of both poles of an issue and finding your own way.
