Charlatan

Thanks but I say *a lot* of dumb ass things. We all do.

I am thinking that this election is the first with a truly "youtube" savy populace. Not only is the media scrutiny there (it has been for a long time) but now every yokel with a computer can upload these missteps and gaffes for all to see.

One would think that more scrutiny would be a good thing but let's face it... there is scrutiny and then there is quality scrutiny.

It becomes even more important to know the source of your information... to understand the inherent bias and to be able to "read" the infoscape. Never has the need of media literacy been more essential to the populace than now (and I think the need is only going to get greater).
