...moore did make at least one good, unbiased point, at least IMHO - how the world we live in, especially with what we watch on tv, and the news, is constantly feeding us all this stuff, telling us that we should be afraid, and that we're in constant threat from some thing or another.

and i say this as i sit here watching CNN, about how the flu season this year has started earlier than usual, and that oculd mean a 'slightly worse' flu season... said in the most ominous way possible.... followed by some snippets about how the drug companies have not made enough flu vaccines for people this year, and that some people won't be able to get them...

...a new study has found that eating pizza can substantially raise your risk of getting cancer, followed by, the next day, "not eating enough pizza could cause cancer, details after this"...

i mean, the news and stuff deliver the bias/views/stories that sell, so this forcing ourselve to live in fear must be part of our nature as humans, and what does that say?
