News Thread

[CountryWiiBoy13]

I feel like there aren't enough people, in general, interested in the news. I, myself, am constantly checking the news on T.V., newspapers, & apps on my iPod. This is a thread for news of any sort. Just post any news you think is interesting. Provide a link or tell it yourself. Maybe something happened in your community? Or maybe you found some good news about our country (please)? Seeing how as strong opinions turn into flamming wars, try to keep a respectful setting.

On the Time.com Mobile app there's an article titled, "Why Kids Who Get Spanked Have Lower IQs." This has been a debated topic for years. It does straighten-up behavior but does it really leave kids emotionally scarred and/or feel scared of others? Never know what kind of articles you'll come across.

I'm very interested in new and world happenings. But the stuff I have bolded in your quote is a problem. T.V. news and most newspapers are the most biased, falsifying, lying, pieces of crap. They can't be trusted, EVER. I then lo'd at the underlined sentence. There isn't ever anything good about the U.S. of A. when it comes o news. And what news about the U.S. you do get is greatly biased and falsely presented(at least if it's on t.v. and newspapers).

But I love news when it is right news. Not gonna share anything though because nothing interesting that shouldn't already have been said somewhere in a post on this site.

I didn't just get spanked, I was beaten and abused for most of my life. I suffered through a horrible childhood and severely psychologically damaging events. Yet, my IQ is much higher than most. Just something to think about.
