>>People don't have any excuse for being uninformed. The information is out there for those who are willing to take the time to seek it out.<<

But C.O., the point of the thread is not whether one gets a pass, and is "excused," but whether the larger corporate media have become so derelict in their duties as to create a large population that is so uninformed as to be virtually misinformed. Not a difficult argument to make, either.
