Which channel, Lord, which channel?

Unfortunately, I no longer trust anybody in the media. Not one. No, not one. I trusted Walter Cronkite, once upon a time, I suppose. At this point, I'm not even sure of that.

Now, January 5, 2005, I get my news from the internet community -- from blogs, from public service websites, from medical websites, from corporate websites, the list is endless. My trust level is high. They have little reason to deceive me. Shame on you FOX, shame on you CNN. You deserve each other. Bye-bye.

My new year's resolution. I'm turning off my TV. I may even make a planter out of it.
