Jim I definitely agree with you as far as "unbiased" information that is out there. I honestly don't know of any single place that a person can go to get true facts.

In a former life I was an intelligence analyst and in another a production control clerk (the person responsible for all the reports dealing with production, costs analysts, individual productivity, etc.). The few things I took away with me was…..never rely on a single source of information and even with 2 or more sources the truth often lies somewhere in the middle. The other is that facts and figures and be easily manipulated (not necessarily lied about……but put in a certain context to look favorable or unfavorable)

One of the most current examples I’ve noticed are the articles concerning campaign fund raising. The top article says Obama Raises $181 Million and the headline below it proclaims Romney raises 12 Million……..You have to read the articles to find out that Obama’s fundraising figure was over a month and Romney’s was on-line donations over a 2 day period.

I personally feel that the key to getting good elected officials is a well informed public…..a difficult situation when trying to find a media outlet that doesn’t have its own agenda.
