Why you look like a fashion model yourself, PO3 Steven Sherrill. But seriously though, how stupid do they think are their viewers?

SGT (Join to see) - I honestly don't think they care. They are like a poo flinging monkey. Throw enough eventually some of it will stick. They throw enough BS out there, and eventually they will have viewers who are convinced that what they are saying is true. Remember For the true believer no evidence is necessary to prove a point. For the true non believer, no amount of evidence will ever be enough. I prefer to be the skeptic. Present your evidence, if I am interested in your subject I will do my own research and form an opinion. Fox news is hoping they have enough sheeple watching that they will not need to provide real, valid, intelligent information. They use the right scary words to get people worked up.

Anytime, I hear, see, or read "expert", I immediately do some research on the so-called "expert".

She is a lawyer who once used renowned forensic experts and won some compelling cases. That goes to show you that some people might have become known as experts in radiology because they took their grandma to get x-rays...

Yinon, I've seen "experts" on the military on all networks, and very few had expertise in the area they were discussing.

Retired Air Force Generals discussing ground campaigns, a former USMC NCO (and a friend of mine) on MSNBC talking Missile Defense and policy, etc, etc.

I'm dubious of ANY expert; more so those with no credentials.

Join nearly 2 million former and current members of the US military, just like you.
