This thread just goes to show how good the media is at corrupting our minds.

The media just lends to the collective mindframe society has, to prevent people from going insane for lacking one.  The media puts out what people buy, and manufactures it to keep the attention of people so they can sell advertising.  If the do the Fox News route, the pander to one political perspective, complete with the blogger buy-in.  One thing that is interesting in all this is that, even with the entire world of information available over the Internet, people still will stay in their own mental play area and continue to reenforce their biases.  And I stand by this, even if people say I am guilty of it also, and stand by it as a rule, even if there are exceptions.
