    Not being debunked left and right, that's where MSNBC and CNN are at... True they screw something up now and then, but it doesn't compare to the crock of shit on Fox. That's where I draw my line Roy. It's pathetic that your defense of Fox news is that it's the most popular. That's like saying because the Boston Red Sox gets the most TV views out of any baseball team, that they are the best team. It's unrelated to the degree of truth. Your argument is some kind of logical fallacy that I'm too lazy to look up and identify. Too bad Fox exaggerates shit and tell loads of lies. I don't see the so-called Liberal-biased media getting torn to shreds by all other media outlets because of their lies and scandals.

    Just for fun! And on the subject biotch of the thread...

    Oh, and here's a fun edit: As a couple of ya'll know, I take the bus, rather than drive. This is a very real issue affecting me right now, in that they are terminating service for most routes on the weekends and past 10 p.m. at night on some days and cutting the one bus line that goes to northwest RI, where most of my family lives. I don't get any bus fare reductions as a graduate student And here I will say Politifact is a little misinformed, as when they talk about the bus rides from Westerly, etc.: There is only one park-n-ride bus in the morning and one in the evening to most of the South County communities, and most of the most distant towns from Providence receive little to no bus service at all. There is no bus to Tiverton or Little Compton, which is not the most distant by straight line but can only be accessed by traveling through Massachusetts; most towns off the Route 1-4-95 north-south corridor only get service in a brief corner of the town; and the entirety of western Rhode Island is serviced by one line that runs 5 times a day (Twice for early morning commute, one afternoon trip, and two evening commute trips). Having to rely on "the 9" sucks.

    Finally, not that anyone wants to hear me rant about RI anymore, but this one is for those who may wonder where in the US the most illegal drug users per capita are... Surprise! 1 in 9 Rhode Islanders are an active drug user, apparently. I haven't read into it enough to state that as hard fact. But it seems about right.
