Well, actually that is just an anecdote I have begun using lately. Every time I would tell someone that I read something in the news, they would try to dismiss it as "spin." I usually try to get at least three sources from varying political opinions before referencing it, but it's pretty funny to see the looks on peoples faces when I say that I take the two evils (FoxNews and Al Jazeera) and divide them equally.
