The same ls true of almost any news story, mainstream media and(especially?) alternative media

  That's right. Its almost true of any story. But you have a chance of verifying something. Occasionally a story will turn up on your doorstep - you should see if the story checks out with your personal experience. However, its entirely true of stories in Antarctica. This is because all the nations of the world agreed that they should keep a whole continent pristine - with no one ever allowed free access. Incredible.

    I don't know what exactly you mean. It's not impossible to go to antarctica. Theres someone that posts every couple of weeks here with their blog from antarctica... There are regular cruises. I myself have been working towards getting a job there

      I cannot go to antarctica, and if I could I would only be allowed to go to the scientific/military bases. A cruise is not exploring antarctica. OTOH, I can go to Canada - I could explore the forests there, travel up rivers, etc. Or, even try to over-winter there, if I wanted. Whether that would be wise to try or not - I cannot even consider this for antarctica. It is out of bounds. > The treaty set aside Antarctica as a scientific preserve and established freedom of scientific investigation and environmental protection. In yet another triumph of doublethink, it says "freedom of scientific investigation and environmental protection" which means that people are not allowed there.
