What's that dude from Menudo doing writing conspiracy articles? He truly is Livin' La Vida Loca.

[Evasive]

woah, that's deep

like yeah

[wadi]

But because you think teh news is corrupt, you're ready to accept everything this cheeseball website tells you? It's possible that some of their stories might be true, but if you accept them without doing all of your own research, you're just as bad as that one guy that watches fox news and believes it all. I forget who it was, but he's on this forum and he's annoying.

Actually he's banned! High five?

I had an interesting course at school after christmas about media and forgery and stuff like that. The guy who gave the lessons had been working for BBC, Reuters and he had participated in the making of a number of documentaries. The course gave me a whole new, more critic way of looking at the media. Most of the time they don't lie outright, but it's hard to find any newspaper or TV-channel with objective point of views, that don't twist and turn the truth to mislead the readers.

I don't even watch news on tv anymore, I think public radio is the best source for news.


high-5, wads!

Look at that, I tried to shorten your name to give you a hip new look, and it came out just as long as before

That's because Georgia has the lowest oil prices in the country. Drive a few miles to South Carolina and you'll find upwards of $2.00 per gallon.

$1.80-$1.90 in Pittsburgh.

But yeah just because the news might not be completely accurate, doesn't mean that a website that presents the opposite side is accurate either. It's quite possible both sides are wrong and the truth is somewhere in the middle.

[ZeUs!!]

We pay 80p a gallon (not sure what that is in cacky imperial measurements) and the chancellor has just increased the tax on petrol AGAIN, sparking another petrol boycott threat and threat of demonstrations, however he backed down and decided not to. They still went ahead with their protests somewhere though, just for the hell of it. What these people don't get is if they reduce the tax on petrol they'll still whack it on something else when we're not looking so we'll still end up paying it

[Sleepy Weasel]

That's one long ass game. I played through the whole thing. Took almost an hour

Don't think you meant gallon Zeus, sure you didn't mean liter?
Read an article a while back that listed British gas prices at $5.79 / gallon. Over half of that being taxes.

[Liquid Blue]

It's hovering around $2 bucks - $2.15 here in Va.

My friend came back from Utah a week ago and said regular was $2.89 there.

[Jerome Scuggs]

In louisiana, we have discovered moonshine as an acceptable substitute to this "gasoline" you speak of

I'd rather not read an ultra-biased conspiracy theory. Do your own research into something that doesn't make sense, instead of taking another's word for it.
