Subject: You know what! I agree with you about the press blowing our National Security for the sake of being first to break the story. But...
In reply to: dd(sorry I'm scarce but got to give the other side) 's message, "I have no problem with the free press. What I have a problem with is when they print classified stuff they know will be detrimental to our National security. For example" on 12:21:14 07/04/02 Thu

here's the rub! You told Joy that she should get her facts straight, and my response was, "Where is she or any of us suppose to get our information, if not from the press?" It's all we have. Now, do we have to believe everything that the press reports? That's quite another story. Since, most citizens don't work for a government agency, they have to rely on whatever sources they have. You can't challenge them if they base their arguements on the information given them because they don't have information that they are not privy to.

Nothing I said was from inside sources. I wouldn't know one if I saw one. The news and papers contradict each other emensely. The Plain Dealer article was vetted after they said the White house gave it up. The Times and USA Today reported on that. So did Fox News and Chris Matthews.
