fox reports both sides and the rest don't show right side. fox may have conservative commentators but they show both sides and CNN doesn't. Did you see the reporter at the Tea Party? The fact that she isn't fired tells you all you need to know and I won't watch again until she is fired.
fox does not report both sides. They edit news in a way that benefits their own agenda. I'm not saying other news don't do that, but to say fox news reports both side is a lie.

NEWS FLASH
As of March 28th CNN is now #3 behind MSNBC and both combined are so far behind Fox News they might as well shutdown and save their parent companies money.
CNN was run by a Richard Parsons who now runs Citi Group and also ran the Obama Transition Team that is why Sangi Gupta CNN Staff was picked to be Surgeon General.
Richard Parsons Is a Black Radical and Used his power running Time Warner to Get CNN to Skew The News.
How come every rich black guy nowadays is considered by some white folks to be a "black radical"? That just sounds like a cover for a more racist term "uppity negro". I don't like Parsons, and think that he's probably as big an asshole as any other CEO, but a black radical? ...hardly. When I think black radical, I think of Malcom X, Sojourner Truth, or Huey Newton of the Black Panthers... or even Martin Luthor King Jr. to some extent. THOSE were black radicals.
CNN might be a 3rd in America but in the rest of the world its still a major news network.
FoxNews & MSNBC are mouth pieces for the right & left of american politics and are more commentators of veiw points then actual journalists. If you want real news check out BBC.
The MSM have let down far more people than they have as viewers. They bring you one side of the story and that is the side that benefits them and their owners and the agenda.
I would like to see something here like the "Prime Minister's Questions." That is some great stuff, I remember watching Tony Blair do that and thinking how Bush would last about 2 minutes in an environment like that. Those guys would grill Blair and they all looked like they had a few pints before they came in and did it too.
according to the Centre for Policy Studies which is a British policy studies think tank. They have said "Since at least the mid-1980s, the BBC is biased against those on the centre-left or left of politics."
Three things I hate about todays news: 1. Superficial Bullshit( Britney Spears, Lohan,etc),
2. Lack of thorough investigative reporting, and
3 Biasnes presented as fact.
FAUX....Ooops, I mean FOX, MSNBC, and even CNN have let us down. HOWEVER, the powers that be know that we Americans are lazy and are willing to take a pundits biasness over taking the time to investigate and research facts for themselves.
Your No.1, that's really everywhere, however, I do think that's the whole point of E! news and its existence. your No.2 is true, but because people ARE polarized politically, religiously, etc. news stations are allowed to be biased b/c they are gearing to a specific group (right, left), when REALLY the news should neutral and allow the people to formulate their own opinions of what is seen, yet, the medias controls what we view and how it is given formulate our opinion of the channel itself.
How about blowing off "fair and balanced\?." There really is a truthful side to stories. Unfortunately the "news" media thinks they have to present both sides regardless of which side is true but given them both the same weight. There ARE sides. Pure & Simple. CNN is not even worth watching. Lost all credibility by hiring Beck and having Dobbs on every night.
Watching CNN would be like watching Fox news and the anchor is Hannity. He would ask McCain what his favorite meal is and ask Obama how he is going to fix the economic problems listing each and every detail and who will lead each part of his team.
Well, you can't because most people are not as open-minded as we think which allows news media to cater to certain people. I recall watching Al Jazeera and instead of just giving the news, the anchor pointed out that the American soldier was too occupied dusting himself off to hear the poor woman talking to him. The news are completely biased b/c of ratings, etc/ They have to stick to a certain agenda to keep it up. And sadly, it only furthers polarization and deepens cultural ignorance.
You are so true. Just listening to this guy try and pretend that CNN is somehow in the middle is a joke. CNN has it head so far up the ass of Obama it's not funny. The only organization that does not is FOX and they are on the right. The BBC always hammers everyone and its nice to get to the truth instead of the BS.
lol...I think u have your head up ur ass. CNN is not for Obama!!! Watch CNN r u watching??? CNN is heading in Fox direction. The BBC is a neutral news network that gets both side of a story.
Give me a break, they love him, his policies and even his teleprompter. Give me a break, I'm waiting for the Obama/Fonda award show coming next month. I agree about the BBC, but if you don't think CNN is 100% for Obama, then you are lost.
CNN always has the most lame republican on getting hammered by someone on the democratic side that is ready. If you want the pro-Obama news, then watch CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC or CNBC. If you want the anti-Obama then watch FOX. Example, the "tea party" protests going on and the "news" covers those at the protest who support Obama/stimulus/bailouts are you for real?
The true problem with FOX and MSNBC is that there isn't just TWO sides to everything. Some shit is so transparent that there's only the Truth and some shit is so broad and mirky that there's thousands of sides to the story... We're getting everything BUT the truth with these stations... it's fucking sad that this country isn't being properly informed by the people we in trusted to do so... I miss Mr. Russert too, one of the last great Journalists (Sorry Anderson)
The US need a bbc like program where because they are paid for by the tax man they are forced to give both sides a hard time. People have lost jobs over showing bias towards a particular side. Of course you get people complain that the bbc is bias when they hold someone accountable that that person agrees with but that is to be expected.
Actually the BBC has admitted itself that they are left wing biased. This would not be much of an issue for us Brits except we are forced to pay for them by law of the TV Licence.

Elements of the blog need to be taken with a pinch of salt due to some right wing bias views itself but there is a lot of clear BBC Bias that is correctly pointed out and taken to task.

I am sorry but as a British person, who actually watches the BBC on a daily basis. It is not objective, politically wise. They are very politically bias. On the scale of US media. ofc not. however don't say they are unbias because trust me they are not...

How about the doctored still shots from that train that wasn't even running that day.
Or how one of the "bombers" was actually still alive after being declared dead and was later gunned down by police.
Or how the electrician that was killed by police and everyone made a big fuss over was one of the only people to work on the tunnel of the one line that exploded. What did he see that made police go out of their way to kill him so publicly?
Ok, I'm going to look into that. Thanks for giving me some food for thought. Truth be told, I should be more interested in what goes on in other parts of the world, instead of America only....Good job Cheese!
Right, but I asked for the actual source name. I won't ridicule you, I'll check it out for myself. If I think it's bull for good reason, I'll call you on it and tell you why. Surely, this is a big deal and people should know about it?
A lot of the scientists who were removed from Al Gore's list because they never actually signed off on it.
Ice CO2 records.
The manipulation of recorded temperatures world wide.
The Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to (I forgot) someone in the 70's (I think) and he said we were going to have an ice age and to stop it we needed to tax carbon. That sounds familiar.
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service estimates that the polar bear population is currently at 20,000 to 25,000 bears, up from as low as 5,000-10,000 bears in the 1950s and 1960s. A 2002 U.S. Geological Survey of wildlife in the Arctic Refuge Coastal Plain noted that the polar bear populations "may now be near historic highs."
exactly my point.. there is alot of data showing the opposite of what global warming implies.. i'm all over environmental protection and co2 reduction but i don't think everyone should be taxed based on that
ya i'll have to agree with maggieRoara on this one, because obviously plants produce CO2 but they net oxygen.. so they're reducing the amount of CO2 in the world.. and yes you are right we need CO2 but their argument is that we have too much which is causing a slight increase in temperature
They do, actually. Plants need light to convert CO2 into O2. At night they, actually, do the opposite. The lack of light causes plants to convert O2 into CO2.
The IUCN now lists global warming as the most significant threat to the polar bear, primarily because the melting of its sea ice habitat reduces its ability to find sufficient food. The IUCN states, "If climatic trends continue polar bears may become extirpated from most of their range within 100 years."[1] On May 14, 2008, the United States Department of the Interior listed the polar bear as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.
It's just too bad we have no control over the conventional idea that global warming is created by man.
It got warmer because of Sun spots on the Sun.
Now there aren't that many sun spots and we're going into global cooling. That's why they've changed the talking point of "global warming" to "climate change", which you can experience from Spring to Summer to Fall to Winter, it's a fraud.
The Earth's temperature is not melting the ice on Triton, Neptune's largest moon, it was the Sun.
this guy just produces the typical propaganda drivel, "fox news increasingly ideological" - as if it was ever setup to be anything but straight all-out propaganda - absurd thing to say, then he invokes the stewart-cramer thing which doesnt really have to do anything with this murdoch overthrow of journalism
cnn is as much propaganda as fox news, its just aimed at a wider audience, this guy is a glazed corporate minion, dont even bother giving him a forum
If Tim Russert was still alive today and interviewed Sarah Palin, Palin will be able to ACE the "tough" interview of Russert and show the whole world that she is THE ULTIMATE and SUPERIOR politician that she truly is.
Unfortunately, I don't think your sarcasm was as apparent as it should have been, based on how people rated your comment....
Or either they're just too stupid to get sarcasm.
Funny though. Palin would have been written off IMMEDIATELY if Russert had had a crack at her. McCain would have had to get a new running mate (something he probably should have done anyway).
If Katie f'n Couric's questions pwnt Palin as bad as they did, Russert would have single-handedly destroyed her political career.
I guess this guy doesn't realize that Joe Scarborough is on for 3 hours every morning on MSNBC which is one our more than Olbermann and Maddow put together. Besides that John King and Lou Dobbs are both wingnuts on CNN.
MSNBC employs pat freaking buchanan and he's all over the place.sometimes i actually agree with him but a liberal he ain't
more shows should be like hardball with chris matthews,whether you like him or not he won't let somebody get by with a talking point like some do and calls people on ther BS
The BBC is not strong enough to drive Palin to the ground. Palin will be able to fend off the BBC sharks and show her SUPERIORITY to the whole world that she is THE ULTIMATE and SUPERIOR politician.
Palin made fantastic television! Fact. She should go into TV evangelism. She would absolutely clean up. I think she is hot though!! I fantasise about me having my way with her in her priestly robes mmmmmmmmmm!!
If "president Palin" becomes a reality I will cut out my left testicle and eat it raw. I am more likely to put my penis in her vag than for that to happen. Then again "Americans"!
All big networks are part of the same establishment. The views they represent are all within the same narrow slice of the spectrum. So there's besides a rare fluke never any real "other side of the story" being reported.
Regarding what Cenk calls fake neutrality, the MSM is almost completely void of investigating journalism. What should be core business of news media is absent. Thats where US journalism fails. And again, it is because big media is part of the (ruling) establishment.
Very heart warming to hear this man talk about the brilliant work of Jon Stewart. We don't want advocacy we want inquiry for the truth for all our benefits.
Why not make the real drama of finding the truth the attractive piece. Trust me often the media makes two things seem equal rather than the actual story that lets us realise the truth. ie. how many people are on welfare, how many people live above 200,000 dollars etc.
LAZY!!! A great word for journalism today----- I miss Jennings, Brokaw, and others that did the job---did not have a skewd vision for their own political view. Fox is not Fair or Balanced and I AM SICK of the Crap that is "NEWS" Octomom is not news---Celebrity is not news. Great distraction, but not news. Can we save us from ourselves???? I Hope SO!
Yea after the last eight years, the media has really shown there true colors, a women having 14 kids can make headlines and ran into the ground, but war crimes has only been touched on if even that.
Because in recent years the party line has no meet on the bones for anyone but those who have something to hide. The air in their stuff was just attack drama for the sake of getting attention. Watching Fox was like watching someone piercing themselves to get a feeling of something real. They started the spin when they elected Reagan and never stopped to consider that liberty and justice for all doesn't mean only for those who can jump higher and higher.
Yes it is a Fact that climates do change - the debate is whether or not Humans have that much of an impact or are the cause or if it is just a naturally occurring phenomena.
Well said. Given the history of the earth, I don't thin kit really matters either way though, if we are affecting the climate directly, there is no doubt the earth will adjust, as it did when plants were dominant and Oxygen was their poison, but the planet adjusted.
If we aren't... then we are just enjoying the ride. Not saying we shouldn't be more conscious of our actions and reduce pollution, but not because of global warming, but because we want to have a healthy environment for our kids.
Problem with information is it's not old enough, regardless of the source. We just don't have the data to make accurate predictions about climate change. What we do know shows that the earth changes a lot and often quite dramatically, while humans were not on the earth. The burden of proof lies in those who think global warming is caused by us, and quite frankly the evidence isn't substantial.
Not saying there isn't evidence we hurt the environment, but changing the whole climate?
C02 is called a greenhouse gas because it traps heat in the atmosphere. Trees are the planets way of getting rid of excess C02. Light normally reflected back into space is trapped raising temperatures. There are too many people, too many farm animals, too many cars on the road, and too many factories pumping out c02. There have been record heat waves and droughts for the last 10 years. Lakes have disappeared in Africa. The glacier my dad took me to when I was a kid is gone.
Fact is humans produce less than 3% of total CO2 emissions.
There have been droughts for hundreds of years in many places all over the earth. Heat waves that lasted much longer than 10 years happened well before this century.
Everything you're telling me has happened, long ago, before we existed.
With all respect, you certainly have a source of facts and are entitled to your opinion, but for you to be of the ethical standard required by science you must explain how you can disagree with so many scientist who indicate that even such a minute amount of change can have an impact. If you have any personal attachment to the use of fossil fuels for as a personal preference or because it has supported your loved ones in some way, your bias must be considered. Hydrogen gas is so much cleaner.
A. Science does not require morality/ethics to be correct. The facts are the facts, moral or not.
B. No bias, my family not connected to the use of fossil fuels, either directly or indirectly.
C. Yes a small change can impact the environment, and yes hydrogen fuel is cleaner, and yes it'd be better if everyone used it.
BUT...
None of this is evidence of Global Climate change. I agree that we should make more of an effort to not pollute our environment. But climate change is an illusion.
Check out the number of heat wave deaths in just the UK over the past decade. What may be bs is how quickly things may change not that things are going to change.
The great thing about facts is they need not support anything as a conclusion is drawn and tested after the facts are found. This is how the scientific method works and is the first tool in avoiding bias. As far as data there is tons of it in the trees and rocks, unless you believe the earth is 6000 years old and a magic sky daddy is coming to rapture us away.
Clearly you have no understanding of the scientific method. First you draw a hypothesis, which is then tested,then a conclusion is drawn based on if the data from the testing supports the hypothesis. Science doesn't just round up a bunch of facts and see where they go.
Fact is the Earth is 4.5billion years old approx. The Great lakes were once ten times larger and have begun to drain slowly for 12000 years, all this without global warming.
There are few facts that actually do support your claim
You need facts to create even a hypothesis. And facts just like laws exists irregardless of hypothesis or the mind that conceives them. Believe it or not facts and evidence exist irregardless of whether you have read them or not. Science does "round up some facts" and see where they go....this is called forming a hypothesis....why it is called hypothesizing not assuming.
climate change? as in the weather changing seasonally? lol or the global warming because of excess in CO2? because that is still up for debate.. and by the way, this year's global temperatures are among the lowest recorded in recent history.. so much for global WARMING huh lol
global warming implies the whole earth getting warmer, and that's misleading. some places may get warmer, some colder, the weather will get to extremes.
Tell that to all the people who don't live in temperate climates. In winter here there is less sun so the C02 has little effect. At the equator the process is amplified. Lowest in recent history? Ya in the last 3 years and in winter. Quote mining is dishonest.
sure it is only recently that temperatures have dropped down, but also only recently did the sun's rays get less intense.. the scientists are thinking that it was emitting more rays than usual in the last decade or so which had contributed to the global warming phenomena.. and apparently the sun started to emit less in the last few years.. again we should do something about cutting down on the CO2 emissions but we should not tax our industries which will bankrupt the nation
Ya you are definitely right about the taxes they are bs. Harsher penalties need to be given to companies responsible for more than their reasonable share though. This will get passed down to the consumer but as money is the only thing these people care about you gotta hit em where they hurt. I would think that if the rays are less intense it also may be a pollution thing. Smog etc.
well about the intensity of the rays, they were measuring it not only in our planet but also in the international space station. as for big companies understanding only the language of money, ya that is true, but i still believe that we can take the Ron Paul approach on this, where cities and citizens can sue big corporations for polluting their air .

How about the doctored still shots from that train that wasn't even running that day.
Or how one of the "bombers" was actually still alive after being declared dead and was later gunned down by police.
Or how the electrician that was killed by police and everyone made a big fuss over was one of the only people to work on the tunnel of the one line that exploded. What did he see that made police go out of their way to kill him so publicly?

A lot of the scientists who were removed from Al Gore's list because they never actually signed off on it.
Ice CO2 records.
The manipulation of recorded temperatures world wide.
The Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to (I forgot) someone in the 70's (I think) and he said we were going to have an ice age and to stop it we needed to tax carbon. That sounds familiar.

True! Polar bear are dying... from being hunted to have no place to live. In that sense, they are "exploding"... as in dying

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service estimates that the polar bear population is currently at 20,000 to 25,000 bears, up from as low as 5,000-10,000 bears in the 1950s and 1960s. A 2002 U.S. Geological Survey of wildlife in the Arctic Refuge Coastal Plain noted that the polar bear populations "may now be near historic highs."

exactly my point.. there is alot of data showing the opposite of what global warming implies.. i'm all over environmental protection and co2 reduction but i don't think everyone should be taxed based on that
zayadnay 2 years ago
CO2 is a life giving gas, it shouldn't be reduced.
In the grand scheme of things, oxygen is more toxic, but by no means am I saying that should be taxed.
They are actually considering cutting down forests in Canada because they produce so much CO2. (yes, plants produce CO2, too.)
Now, does that sound like real environmentalism? To cut down forests?

ya i'll have to agree with maggieRoara on this one, because obviously plants produce CO2 but they net oxygen.. so they're reducing the amount of CO2 in the world.. and yes you are right we need CO2 but their argument is that we have too much which is causing a slight increase in temperature
zayadnay 2 years ago
They do, actually. Plants need light to convert CO2 into O2. At night they, actually, do the opposite. The lack of light causes plants to convert O2 into CO2.

The IUCN now lists global warming as the most significant threat to the polar bear, primarily because the melting of its sea ice habitat reduces its ability to find sufficient food. The IUCN states, "If climatic trends continue polar bears may become extirpated from most of their range within 100 years."[1] On May 14, 2008, the United States Department of the Interior listed the polar bear as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.
yes4me 2 years ago
It's just too bad we have no control over the conventional idea that global warming is created by man.
It got warmer because of Sun spots on the Sun.
Now there aren't that many sun spots and we're going into global cooling. That's why they've changed the talking point of "global warming" to "climate change", which you can experience from Spring to Summer to Fall to Winter, it's a fraud.
The Earth's temperature is not melting the ice on Triton, Neptune's largest moon, it was the Sun.

If Tim Russert was still alive today and interviewed Sarah Palin, Palin will be able to ACE the "tough" interview of Russert and show the whole world that she is THE ULTIMATE and SUPERIOR politician that she truly is.

Unfortunately, I don't think your sarcasm was as apparent as it should have been, based on how people rated your comment....
Or either they're just too stupid to get sarcasm.
Funny though. Palin would have been written off IMMEDIATELY if Russert had had a crack at her. McCain would have had to get a new running mate (something he probably should have done anyway).
If Katie f'n Couric's questions pwnt Palin as bad as they did, Russert would have single-handedly destroyed her political career.

All big networks are part of the same establishment. The views they represent are all within the same narrow slice of the spectrum. So there's besides a rare fluke never any real "other side of the story" being reported.
Regarding what Cenk calls fake neutrality, the MSM is almost completely void of investigating journalism. What should be core business of news media is absent. Thats where US journalism fails. And again, it is because big media is part of the (ruling) establishment.

Why not make the real drama of finding the truth the attractive piece. Trust me often the media makes two things seem equal rather than the actual story that lets us realise the truth. ie. how many people are on welfare, how many people live above 200,000 dollars etc.

Because in recent years the party line has no meet on the bones for anyone but those who have something to hide. The air in their stuff was just attack drama for the sake of getting attention. Watching Fox was like watching someone piercing themselves to get a feeling of something real. They started the spin when they elected Reagan and never stopped to consider that liberty and justice for all doesn't mean only for those who can jump higher and higher.

PsyogiBottoms 2 years ago 3
Well said. Given the history of the earth, I don't thin kit really matters either way though, if we are affecting the climate directly, there is no doubt the earth will adjust, as it did when plants were dominant and Oxygen was their poison, but the planet adjusted.
If we aren't... then we are just enjoying the ride. Not saying we shouldn't be more conscious of our actions and reduce pollution, but not because of global warming, but because we want to have a healthy environment for our kids.

laurasIs2c 2 years ago
Problem with information is it's not old enough, regardless of the source. We just don't have the data to make accurate predictions about climate change. What we do know shows that the earth changes a lot and often quite dramatically, while humans were not on the earth. The burden of proof lies in those who think global warming is caused by us, and quite frankly the evidence isn't substantial.
Not saying there isn't evidence we hurt the environment, but changing the whole climate?
Not buying it
BenjaminFranklin2u 2 years ago
C02 is called a greenhouse gas because it traps heat in the atmosphere. Trees are the planets way of getting rid of excess C02. Light normally reflected back into space is trapped raising temperatures. There are too many people, too many farm animals, too many cars on the road, and too many factories pumping out c02. There have been record heat waves and droughts for the last 10 years. Lakes have disappeared in Africa. The glacier my dad took me to when I was a kid is gone.
Mahoivlich 2 years ago 2
Fact is humans produce less than 3% of total CO2 emissions.
There have been droughts for hundreds of years in many places all over the earth. Heat waves that lasted much longer than 10 years happened well before this century.
Everything you're telling me has happened, long ago, before we existed.
BenjaminFranklin2u 2 years ago
With all respect, you certainly have a source of facts and are entitled to your opinion, but for you to be of the ethical standard required by science you must explain how you can disagree with so many scientist who indicate that even such a minute amount of change can have an impact. If you have any personal attachment to the use of fossil fuels for as a personal preference or because it has supported your loved ones in some way, your bias must be considered. Hydrogen gas is so much cleaner.
laurasIs2c 2 years ago
A. Science does not require morality/ethics to be correct. The facts are the facts, moral or not.
B. No bias, my family not connected to the use of fossil fuels, either directly or indirectly.
C. Yes a small change can impact the environment, and yes hydrogen fuel is cleaner, and yes it'd be better if everyone used it.
BUT...
None of this is evidence of Global Climate change. I agree that we should make more of an effort to not pollute our environment. But climate change is an illusion.
BenjaminFranklin2u 2 years ago
Check out the number of heat wave deaths in just the UK over the past decade. What may be bs is how quickly things may change not that things are going to change.
Mahoivlich 2 years ago
Too bad the record doesn't go far enough back to be an accurate piece of data to support climate change theory.
Sorry, your facts don't support the premise.
BenjaminFranklin2u 2 years ago
The great thing about facts is they need not support anything as a conclusion is drawn and tested after the facts are found. This is how the scientific method works and is the first tool in avoiding bias. As far as data there is tons of it in the trees and rocks, unless you believe the earth is 6000 years old and a magic sky daddy is coming to rapture us away.
Mahoivlich 2 years ago
Clearly you have no understanding of the scientific method. First you draw a hypothesis, which is then tested,then a conclusion is drawn based on if the data from the testing supports the hypothesis. Science doesn't just round up a bunch of facts and see where they go.
Fact is the Earth is 4.5billion years old approx. The Great lakes were once ten times larger and have begun to drain slowly for 12000 years, all this without global warming.
There are few facts that actually do support your claim
BenjaminFranklin2u 2 years ago
You need facts to create even a hypothesis. And facts just like laws exists irregardless of hypothesis or the mind that conceives them. Believe it or not facts and evidence exist irregardless of whether you have read them or not. Science does "round up some facts" and see where they go....this is called forming a hypothesis....why it is called hypothesizing not assuming.

global warming implies the whole earth getting warmer, and that's misleading. some places may get warmer, some colder, the weather will get to extremes.
chefawkes 2 years ago 3
Tell that to all the people who don't live in temperate climates. In winter here there is less sun so the C02 has little effect. At the equator the process is amplified. Lowest in recent history? Ya in the last 3 years and in winter. Quote mining is dishonest.
Mahoivlich 2 years ago
sure it is only recently that temperatures have dropped down, but also only recently did the sun's rays get less intense.. the scientists are thinking that it was emitting more rays than usual in the last decade or so which had contributed to the global warming phenomena.. and apparently the sun started to emit less in the last few years.. again we should do something about cutting down on the CO2 emissions but we should not tax our industries which will bankrupt the nation
zayadnay 2 years ago
Ya you are definitely right about the taxes they are bs. Harsher penalties need to be given to companies responsible for more than their reasonable share though. This will get passed down to the consumer but as money is the only thing these people care about you gotta hit em where they hurt. I would think that if the rays are less intense it also may be a pollution thing. Smog etc.
Mahoivlich 2 years ago
well about the intensity of the rays, they were measuring it not only in our planet but also in the international space station. as for big companies understanding only the language of money, ya that is true, but i still believe that we can take the Ron Paul approach on this, where cities and citizens can sue big corporations for polluting their air .
