Yup, this is the kind of precision of language I'd expect from a solid news outlet. Oh, wait, this is NPR.

Yeah because mainstream corporate news isn't saying the same thing.

Believe me, that wasn't my point. I just like busting on people who regard NPR as the last bastion of honest, intrepid journalism.

Just curious...who do you trust when it comes to the news?
Or do you pretty much have to sift through every bodies bs and decide for yourself what is legit?

Who do I trust? It depends on the story, and where (ideologically) each outlet is most likely coming from. I read it all from Ann Coulter to CNN to Daily Kos, and usually the truth (to me at least) falls somewhere in the middle.

But enough with the threadjack (which I'm aware I partly started). I thought this NPR host put on a very weak performance.
