Ok...to each thier own. My life views are far less conspiracy oriented. If you don't believe 2 major news feeds and any local affiliates, where do you go for what you believe to be reliable news sources?

I read FOX and CNN as well as MSNBC...and then there various newsfeeds of Reuters & the BBC available through Google. As far as I can tell, none of them are reporting anything even close to the original claims. From a purely human standpoint..any one of those organizations would jump at the chance of breaking a story like this.

Which makes me doubt its veracity.

It doesn't seem like too far of a stretch for me to think that a mult-billionaire corporate head would protect his political standing, especially with the president, by ordering a blackout or even false reporting for a specific story such as this.

It also doesn't seem like too far of a stretch for Obama to push something like this considering his major pushes for nuclear power and his own stake in America's nuclear power program ("Nuclear operator Exelon Corporation has been among Barack Obama's biggest campaign donors, and is one of the largest employers in Illinois where Obama was senator. Exelon has donated more than $269,000 to his political campaigns, thus far. Obama also appointed Exelon CEO John Rowe to his Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future." Doesn't appointing a CEO of a Nuclear operator company as the head of a commission which determine's America's nuclear future seem like a conflict of interest? And that's only the information we know).

Am I saying that it is a true story? Absolutely not.

Do I feel like it is within possibility? Absolutely.


I don't have a source I completely trust for news. And it's not because I'm paranoid or anything...I don't believe in the Illuminati or some far-reaching secret organization that controls everything. And I'm not saying you can't trust anything at all you see on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Local News, etc...but no matter what, there's some distortion, some subjectivity, some bias, and someone protecting themselves through whatever pressures or influences are at play.

I would like to say Al Jazeera is trustworthy, because I like their style of reporting and they seem to have great coverage which seems undistorted, but they're owned by the State of Qatar, which is an absolute monarchy...too much room for influence in my eyes.
