This is all I was saying. I'm too cynical anymore to take anything any single source says as truth. I need to get both sides of an argument and decide for myself which is truth.
I'm just wondering what makes you all so sure this program doesn't have an agenda and isn't biased towards that agenda?? Even if the agenda is to show a counterpoint to what the mainstream media is showing, are you certain that they are doing a fair and balanced report?

You have the world wide web at your fingertips do some research. It's all there both sides. Make sure you check the sources of the article you are reading or the news story you find, but you will find the truth and the truth is not what expect trust me.
I get all my news from the web. When I hear something on TV, I research and then I research some more. Then I decide.
Also follow the money. Most of the TV news is owned by a few rich and powerful men, so it can be very slanted. Frontline being on PBS which is funded by private donations and not owned by someone with an agenda.
At least that is what I think, let me know if I am wrong.

Maybe Dr. Shades and his grammar apparatus can help answer this: Is it better to say "non-existent stockpiles of weapons", or "stockpiles of non-existent weapons"?
