It seems we will hear news that supports the pharmaceuticals not news about disease prevention unless pharmas make a profit somehow right?

Disease and mental illness is profitable so why ever try to prevent it even if news leaks out to the public about the cause. put a spin on it so that big pharma and other big business makes more and more money

No we should NOT beleive CBS. How can we know they are telling us the truth? Everybody has ulterior motives, especially rich owners of giant corporations with their fingers in dubious pies. Its hard to know what to trust anymore.

No, I do not trust CBS news. There is no really trustworthy news source now days. You have to watch/read a variety of sources and use your mind to discern the real story while keeping an eye open to make sure you're not being distracted from something important that's being downplayed. There's a profound amount of foreign investment in our media outlets as well as domestic political players who 'spin' what you get to hear about in order to manipulate our social fabric.

But, really, can we trust any big news channels these days. They are all bias one way or the other. And yeah, seems like it will be the case unless they prove us wrong by doing otherwise.
In our society, almost everything is owned by someone with power and money. Look as the myspace website, it's owned by a conservative republican pupet.
Whatever they report, I'm sure it won't be as bad as fox news, if that's any constellation.
