|Tigers Johnson| Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I have been saying for years that 24 hour news services are the scourge of society. I have also been saying that people who blindly "root" for their political party like a football fan are the biggest problem...they don't care about the issues, they just care if their "team" wins! Excellent article! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange 'n Black Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I read Cracked every day. It's comedy first and foremost but they do actual research on all of the articles, and every week or so they'll come out with a bit like this that really rings true.

Sad that one might actually consider them one of the more reputable news sources out there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a back cover fold-in poster that show the REAL truth!!!! Ummm... Wait. Do the magazines still actually exist in magazine form these days? I haven't been past a magazine stand in ages and just realized some people may not get that reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I definitely get the joke (grew up on Mad and Cracked as a magazine SUCKED), but it's pretty obvious which one of these made the transition to digital successfully. I honestly have no idea if either one still exists in print, but I can say that I don't recall ever visiting the Mad website... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
