C3PX, what do you have against FOX News? I mean, I don't love it but it's not horrible.

Sean Hannity, though. Jeez, what a tool. I agree with him more often than not and I can't tolerate two seconds of him.

Maybe it is not as bad as I am making it out to be, I don't know because I don't watch it. My image of Fox News is O'Reiley, Beck, and Hannity, and since I can't stand those guys, I tend to write the whole thing off.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't think Fox News as a whole is any worse than MSNBC or those other news stations, I'd just rather not screw around with any of them, they are all the same to me.

I forgot to answer Warbler as to where I get my news: Anywhere I can. Anytime something big comes up and I want to know about it, I'll look at several different written sources to try to piece together the situation. Just like kids fighting on the play ground, each side has its own spin to the whole thing, it is better hear out both sides of the story rather than just hearing one kid's side and punishing the other kid. You'll never get an accurate picture from just one side.

If you don't want to answer that's cool, C3PX, but where do you live? If I were to believe the stereotypes, it seems like you live in the heart of the Bible Belt, surrounded by trailer parks, Wal-Marts, and Southern Baptist mega-churches based on what you just said.

Unfortunately for me, you are not too far from the truth. I am currently living in the mid-west (don't care for it much). Though where I am, I see a lot more ghetto slums and nearly empty ornate old church buildings than I do trailer parks and mega-churches.
