That's surprisingly common. I see it all the time on other forums as well: someone comes thumping chest and posts "breaking news" that "no one knew about" and wonder "why the mainstream media is not reporting this", believing in a huge conspiracy of the world wide government trying to silence "the truth".
Then they link to some mainstream media, don't bother to find out that it has also been reported by other mainstream medias and won't stop for a second to consider that if it wasn't reported by the mainstream media, they wouldn't know about it either. I mean, how many of them I should believe to be involved in the highest level of European politics and therefore have such insider info as they claim?
Wait...did I just try making sense in a yubba-thread?
