    Do you really trust the information you are getting from the Government Media?

    Do you think any of the Media coverage of our Government is actually "Un-Biased" ???
    Or... Even Truthful???  And this Osama death thing... Truth? or Just more manipulation of public opinions to keep us guessing?

    believer??? or you need to see it???....Is completely diferent in this case, I personal trust.... I think the media is triying to push the goverment to show pictures or videos and at the same time make the public doub, is part of the show bussines. People want to know more, have more details thats why we are humans.  in the other hand if Bin Ladem will still alive but this time he already  had appeared  in a video with a paper on his hands.

    “Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.”

    “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

    Some can be, but obviously not all.

    Obama is dead.  Elvis, on the other hand, is still alive.   :-)

    Only a fool would trust the either the government or the media.
    Never take either for it's word and always look at other opinions and facts before making any conclusions. Don't succumb to the blatant brain washing of the ALWAYS biased media.
    That is why the internet is good. It isn't controlled by the government. (Don't believe everything you read on the internet either)
