Take a cop for example. They appear to make up a story about him being "above the law"! Some say it's not true!

Do you believe there is a shortage in honeybees?

It has already been proven that news stories are sometimes stretched, if not completely fabricated. Remember what caused Dan Rather to resign..uhhm mean, "retire" from CBS?
Anyhow, there are a lot of political agendas in the news, and they certainly take into account their sponsors' position on matters. Even NPR is slanted. It's just the nature of the business.
The news has to make sure things are kept interesting so that they will have viewers and thus earn advertising profit. Did you ever wonder why we get random stories of people lost in the woods on the other side of the country? It's because there probably wasn't a big enough bombing or train wreck somewhere else at the same time. Those stories were heard of before the big news networks came out.

Cops do what they are trained to do. Find someone to bother
when they get bored. When they aren't doing that they're eating donuts. This country is a joke! From the government all
the way down to your next door neighbor. My advice would be either consider moving or constantly remind the DONUT
EATERS in uniform that you have rights. These days If one
makes you mad you can sue. You might not get anything but,
you can drag their name through the mud and back!

Just because it's on the news doesnt make it real or right. However I do think there may be a shorage of bees as a lot of farmers are reporting problems with the lack of them.
The news as we see all has to be taken with the proverbial grain of salt in other words don't beleive everything you see and hear but rather put it in context with other info you can gather.

Yes, there is a shortage of honeybees. It may be no big deal, or it might be a major crisis, nobody is quite sure yet. If we are all starving in 2009, we'll know for sure.

I no longer watch TV News on any station, nor do I subscribe to any newspapers.I DO NOT believe a word that reporter's say about anything, and those self serving Polls mean squat.

Good God NO....its a matter of public record that the Government of the USA spends hundreds of millions of dollars on disinformation and propaganda. They run a military style propaganda campaign that treats it's own citizens as "the enemy".
It is also a matter of public record (via the freedom of information act) that they (the govt) and many other big companies (GMC, Dodge, GE, to name a few) employed a fellow by the name of Edward Bernays. He is the author of the book "Propaganda".
He was also employed to head the continent wide campaign to fluoridate your water supply. I suggest googling him, and also visiting websites such as http://www.infowars.com don't believe me, inform yourself.
