    Exactly. Sheeple pay the bills, but the manufacturer is the media.
    That's all I'm saying.

      That's splitting hairs awfully small. The media gives the people what they want. If the people didn't want to hear these scandals, the media wouldn't waste their time. They are just in it for the money, after all.

        It's not splitting hairs. It's a fundamentally different view of causality.
        You're certainly welcome to your viewpoint, however naive.

          To blame the media is the coward's way out and fails to take responsibility for the failings of the general public. I guess as long as you don't have to look in the mirror, right?

            Coward? Look in the mirror?
            Why are you making this personal?

              Hey, you think I'm naive and I think you are a coward. Just the way it is.

              Or are you calling the general "you" naive?

                  Btw, am I the only one would would LOVE it if one of the 103 not named so far on the list was Jeter?
                  I'm sure you're not alone. Jeter is Mr. Yankee and people hate the Yankees. I think hoping for that is pretty low, though. Ah well, hate does things to people...

                  That is one of the names that would surprise/disappoint me. Not shock me, mind you, but surprise me.

                    I'm not sure how anything was all that personal here, Ming.

                      FWIW, I was calling the point of view naive...

                      Contrast with:

                      Tell me again how that wasn't personal (not that I took it seriously).
