How do you know what they are saying is truth? Was Saddam truly hung to die? Did Gerald Ford die? Did OJ go on trial for murder? Was JFK president at one time and killed in Texas?
Is there a war in Iraq? How do you know what you read is truth?
It all requires some faith doesn't it?

I suppose you make a valid point. But there is faith and there is blind faith. I don't believe everything I read in the news, just like I don't believe everything I read in the bible. To take the bible as the literal word of God, simply because it's written as the word of God, would be as illogical as taking a newspaper as the word of God. I don't flat out deny the possibility but from what I've observed most of the bible is incorrect.

under no circumstances permit Politicians impression the type you think of. those adult men survive on being elected and deflecting blame. The media is regularly independent. To be biased is a curse in maximum circumstances (See Fox information). the situation is that Media a) comments the reality that could properly be quiet grotesque in many circumstances and b) takes the situation of watchdog meaning it is going to be against the prestige quo. So, believe the Media, they are knowledgeable and function an enormously extreme code of ethics. As count of actuality, maximum ethical polls coach that newshounds have bigger ethics than all of us, yet medical doctors and attorneys. this implies they have greater bigger ethical standards than politicians, infantrymen and cops, yet apart from the politicians, you do not see all of us thinking those different communities that regularly. additionally, don't get Michael Moore, Ann Coulter, Al Franken, Rush Limbaugh and the different speaking heads at a loss for words with newshounds. they are opinion mongers, not newshounds. yet another element to undergo in ideas is do not believe bloggers, particular .001% could easily get a breaking tale, however the rest are being irresponsible and have no editors to verify for information and accuracy.

The media can be slanted based on who is reporting and what their personal beliefs are, but there is some base root of truth in the type of stories that you are referring to

You obviously don't know how a newsroom works. A reporter better have actualities (audio, video etc.) to confirm what they're reporting. They run the risk of losing their reputation and even their entire career if they don't. Also, ever hear of the RTNDA?
