Remember this quote...

I have it stickied on my monitor:

"Modern Right Wing Propaganda is based on the headline value of assertion instead of the lasting value of evidence."

[DonEBrook]

1. Well, it's true of any kind of propaganda...

2. The difference between the right wing propaganda

and the left wing propaganda is that when the "lasting value of evidence" disproves the left wing propaganda, the right wing propaganda machine (AKA, the MSM) creates a huge "headline ... assertion" about it whereas when it happens to right wing propaganda, its relegated to a blurb on the bottom of the 12th page of the 2nd section :)

3. K & R!!

Who said that?

Heuristics and elaboration are supposed to work in concert. But not with these guys, they know how to shovel lies with the best of them

4. Who said? I believe Thomas Oliphant...

I remember him saying it on an NPR interview (Diane Rehm show) perhaps a year ago. It struck me so, that I wrote it down.
