Britons are giving up on NHS dentists, with a million more people saying they have not been to see one since the Government brought in a new contract in April 2006.

The figures suggest that almost half the population of England did not see an NHS dentist in the two years to September 2007.

pffft sky news what a joke.

Post padding as an effort to amplify a point: 5 minutes of mindless scrolling.

Reading conservative talking point after conservative talking point: 20 minutes of mindless scrolling.

Finally arriving on...

pffft sky news what a joke.

Priceless!

But srs, Curdy is British (or some other hilarious accent); he knows what he's talking about. There are media outlets in every country which you can trust, and others which you can't.

P.S. You type like Glen Beck talks, Spray. I'd be careful if I were you; you might be going INSANE!

[Curdy]

Thats true you would be suprised about what dosen't get reported in the news.

For instance America's missing nukes!

Edit.

Everyone in America knows Fox News shows are not actual reporting. Like I mentioned earlier, a majority of the Fox News coverage is trolling for satire and the shock effect. Those who watch Fox News and taken verbatim has the intelligence of a fruit. I know people though who watch it for the lulz because they can't find someone who thinks just as stupidly as they do. I can get a show on Fox News and spew all this hate mongering for anyone. That's how Fox rolls.

Actually I could write you a news piece thats nothing but fact, but something that does not tell the whole truth. I could give you facts about healthcare being great and wonderful, proving it helps millions get healthcare and just leave out its cost & regulations. That would be nothing but fact, but biased.

If you read my post it clearly stated there is this possibility of this happening.

@Starsmine: Merely stating "context" and not giving me proof?

Context, (yes, I understand what you meant) while being a completely rational argument still does not have a counterpoint to my post.

@Sprayandprey: You could have easily posted every article into one post with their explanations attached and still get your point across. I imagined you sitting there at your computer screaming at the top of your lungs "I AM RIGHT, THIS IS NOT FOR DEBATE, IMMA GET MY POINT ACROSS BY POSTING TOO MUCH SO PEOPLE WILL LISTEN TO ME." If anyone was going to genuinely read your posts and take them into account they refrained from doing so after seeing 2 pages worth of useless posts. This thread is about healthy debate, not shoving your opinion down everyone's throat. No one here is angry at anyone else for posting disagreements. You're making yourself look hotheaded.

Besides, almost any of the incidents you are crying about could happen anywhere, to anyone. Human beings by nature have tendencies towards both good and evil.

The fact that people quote a commentary show that even has declared many times that it is not a news show and then cry about how it is not reporting the news like a news show only proves how ignorant people will be in order to prove a point. This is like when today I read a work called feeding frenzy about the media in politics. Sure the work had some good points but I was loling on the ground when the analogy was about the kayos of when sharks are on a feeding frenzy. Clearly this person does not know that sharks are actually very orderly when they are going to get a free meal. Now while this does not affect his other statements it does make him look a bit stupid. The point is that if you say something you should at least try to check if it is actually true.

Glen beck was also on CNN for a few years where he ran his show much the same way yet where are the clips clamming that headline news does not report the news becuase of his cometary show.

I guess that ABC does not report the news either becuase they also run the View. I guess there is no such thing as news because there is always some show on a given station where it is just commentary on the news but not actual reporting of it.

There is no such thing as news anymore, unless it's definition has changed .

People are ignorant fucks, I say just let them have at it.

"We think we've come so far. Torture of heretics, burning of witches, it's all ancient history. And then, before you can blink an eye, suddenly it threatens to start all over again."
"I believed her... I helped her... I did not see what she was."
"Mr. Worf, villains who twirl their mustaches are easy to spot. Those who clothe themselves in good deeds are well-camouflaged."
"I think, after yesterday, people will not be so ready to trust her."
"Maybe. But she or someone like her will always be with us, waiting for the right climate in which to flourish. Spreading fear in the name of righteousness. Vigilance, Mr. Worf. That is the price we have to continually pay."

From TNG's the drumhead episode, I wonder how much of that really applies to todays politics and news programs.
