It calls into question the very trustworthiness of the news media, especially when it not only quotes, but repeats without question that which they’ve been told. As it relates to the present, the thing that’s attracted my ire is the blind repetition of the term “carabineer” by media outlets in connection with the tragic incident at Lifest 2007. This is not so different than the phrase “bungee ride” that I had previously complained about. [...] [...] This is something that has long been a source of annoyance for me.

I mean, really read it; when was the last time you did more than a quick skim? This documen is an example of classical liberalism – the kind associated with liberty, not socialism.
