I know
spelling flames are juvenile. But, I couldn't get over this caption to a story
Quote:Former Juneau, Alaska High School principle Deborah Morse speaks to reporters outside the Supreme Court...
and that members of the news media so frequently like to tell the rest of us how dumb we are, and how much more informed, and ergo "right", they are.

RE: I know
yep, majority of the media are idiots with agendas.
until today, at CNN you could not find “Jerusalem, Israel" on their weather search, you could find “Jerusalem, OH" and other places but not Israel. Instead it was “Jerusalem, null.”, LGF found this obvious anti-israel hatred the other day and as of today it has been fixed.
CNN is not antiwar, they like alot of war protesters are simply on the other side. Which explains alot.
also, you can still find all this old arab cities that no longer exist on CNN"s website and haven't in decades.

They also couldn't place Afghanistan correctly on a map either. They put it where Syria is located.

RE: I know
The media also likes to spell and pronounce words a certain way to sound intelligent. A.K.A wrong. E.g. they like to say negotiate like nego-see-ate now, if you look that up in the dictionary it says that pronunciation is archaic (and it does seem to be a recent development in the media). They apparently think they're arbiters of the English language. Wrong. They also spell things differently if they feel like it (how many different spellings of Khaddafi did we see?). I can spell far better than most journalists so I notice these things too.
