Raw Links

I like Raw Story, but why would they uncritically link to crap like this?

GENERAL FORESEES 50 TO 100 YEAR TERROR WAR

In all caps no less to further its hoped-for urgency - why?




Beside the fact that it's God's Sun Myung Moon's newspaper, and that it's a Bill Gertz story (the Russians took the WMDs to Syria!), wouldn't a headline with, say, a question mark or something be more appropriate? Or "Air force General Goes Crazy Stupid" maybe?

The fact that a brigadier general in the Air Force said something so absolutley loopy is news, but not that kind of news. The people at Raw Story should know better.

I'm done.
