>By not checking information but just accepting whatever is handed to you... >The basic 'facts' are accepted without contention. Or any verified evidence. >All that's needed is for someone to make a claim or show it on TV and that's basically right, right? Who exactly are you speaking about here? What gives you the right to presume -- without any evidence -- that others don't verify and critically examine what they read and hear? Do you actually believe that you're the only person who does this? Your attitude is blatantly condescending and supercilious.
