an incredible thread regarding 'style over substance'.

i am bemused that the content is so easy to overlook, in preference for dwelling on the talking head delivering it, that one might determine a 'favourite'.

i can trust / favour not a single one station / channel / outlet, let alone an individual on their pay roll.

i watch sky news for flashes, as they have the dosh to be everywhere first; i then acquire further detail (as opposed to regurgitation of headlines) from BBC news, before gaining 'fact' from reuters and associated press.

after time, if interest is sustained, i look for alternative perspectives from Press TV (iran), Euronews (which is french), RT (russian), CCN (china) and Al Jazeera (saudi).
