Anything on TV is 100% suspect.
TV is geared toward programming the subconcious mind.
If you reeeeeeally want to avoid disinfo...stay away from TV. |

And......the really provocative shows are forced off for ridiculous reasons. The two examples that come to mind are from the SciFi Channel. Outer Limits and Invisible Man were the #1 and #2 shows on. They were getting more controversial, dealing with government, religion, and corporate issues, and not favorably. All of a sudden, they both are cancelled, and the idiotic "Scare Tactics" took one of the shows place.

To contrast the warning about TV disinfo, you have the occassionally mind-boggling SciFi shows/series like Invasion, that imitates reality so profanely one would be infuriated were it not for the fact that the show itself predated the real occurance. Some real jems in this series were fibers that came down with a hurricane, forced quarantine from a threat of bioweaponized superflu, withheld relief in a hurricane-devasted region, etc, etc..
It's enough to really make you wonder what the f*** is going on sometimes..
And then you have Oil Storm..

I think Rense.com disclaimer says it all.. He puts things out there for YOU to decide.

| benefit of the doubt

It is important to look critically at those who claim to know the truth. Especially given the complexity of the crime and cover-up of 9/11.
One thing I like to do is layering. What are the commonalities and differences among the 9/11 researchers and truth seekers? Pile it up. Where do they disagree, and why? What do I believe? and Why?
I give the benefit of the doubt to guys like Alex Jones, Mike Ruppert, and also to Eric Humfschmid (sp?). but don't necessarily agree with any one of them 100%. And oddly enough, even if any of them were dis-info agents, they still need to provide a good deal of agreed upon truth to conceal the false trails and dead ends. Where are the divergence points in the layering?
Of course, a great deal can be read into what isn't being said, by any number of famous speakers, writers and intellectuals. It could be due to ignorance or more likely perspective. The truth is not a black and white issue and everywhere along the way a colorful cornucopia of data to ingest. Some will be bad, and some nourishing. Maybe Chomsky, for example, just can't palate the thought the US Government is more despicable then he ever imagined, thus constructing what seems to him a completely logical explanation of 9/11. That is, if you give him the benefit of the doubt.
I still value his work.
Kind of like friends and family. You may not agree with or condone everything they do, but still manage to provide love and support. But when they start asking for money and creating alleigences with and against others the support stops, the trust is gone.
Somehow, we have to find ways to get along anyway, because even the bad people we rail against think they are doing good. It is very hard to change a persons perspective. Find the convergence points though and you'll find the best spots to wedge a differing point of view. It's a classic technique.
In the info age, one has to be studious to keep the facts straight and avoid traps that eat up processing ability. I tend not to rely on any one persons word as the truth, but rather varying degrees of it.
Oh, and besides the benefit of the doubt, add salt (preferably fully mineralized, and NOT into the sky - thank you very much)
