re: #256 Soap_Man
There is a big difference between using an unnamed source to get important info out to the public and using it to bring out the crazy.
It’s not all b.s. because I’m assuming media outlets often have to use the unnamed source because it is the only way to convey valuable information.
Of course, it is b.s. sometimes. I don’t like Palin, but all the post-election crap about unnamed sources coming out to call her a dumb diva was horseshit. Unnamed sources are for information valuable to the public, not for petty insults.
So who gets to choose what is important to get out to the public? I don’t always like everything I read here, but I trust it as credible because it has a name attached to it.
