Okay, so it's Joe Farmer's opinion. Why was it sold as news and not in the opinion section?

Personally, I find it irresponsible journalism considering that it has been proven that a large number of people can't discern the difference between fact and opinion.

I don't think the media is unaware of this fact either. It is an opinion piece sold as news w/an agenda to dupe the unthinking population.
I can, that's why I don't pay any attention to Newsweek... :razz:

I'd wager that you don't pay attention to anything that doesn't reinforce your preset bias.
