read only US newspapers?

Yes, daily, the editorial and letters to the editor pages - they're
hilarious.

News is available in the US in only about 5 of the major papers. It's not
available at all on television except when a station rebroadcasts a BBC
program.


- if you get
"news" on the idiot box you'd be better of watching Nickelodeon.

yep. and most americans are conservative so get their news from fox.
it's made them idiots

I said a thousand times the idiot box makes you an idiot. You finally agree.

The
British papers have far more on line about what is happening in the U.S.
than any U.S. publication, because the U.S. publications broadcast what
is
interesting to "Americans," such as which Hollywood whore didn't wear
panties today or is back in jail, or what the empty suit is going to do
to
send you $300 for your vote. "Inquiring minds what to know!"
Hahahahahahaha

no one here reads the 'economist'. a pity. but america is very right
wing so people aren't interested in facts

Most "Americans" buy news magazines at a grocery store or 7-11 checkout
line. That's why they "think" like they do. 98% just look at the pictures of
Bill Clinton on the White House lawn with aliens.

The Economist is likely the best news, political and economic publication on
the planet, despite their frequent leanings toward welfare statism. Most
"Americans" would flip the pages and turn on The Gong Show (now broadcast as
"American Idol.") Their activities will change when the U.S. government
defaults.
