How much do you know that was not written, reported, or told to you by another person?
It can't be much I imagine since we spend all our time in our car, in our homes, at school, at work, or in stores. No matter what your IQ is, most of what you know has not been discovered or verified by you personally. You're always taking somebody's word for it. How many things happened in the world today of which you will be eternally oblivious? CNN, MSNBC, FOX, BBC and the others don't know either. They'll gladly give you your opinion on it though. Should the subject arise.

I'm a loner and an individual.A great deal of what I know is from personal experience, or from research, and often experimentation. The Murdoch controlled media will only lead you astray. MSNBC usually starts out with facts before inserting opinions. The rest don't even start out with facts. BBC shows the Euro side of issues.
I do learn a lot from other people. I try to listen to people that have actually "been there" and "done that" as opposed to the "bought and paid for" media.
Currently, must question why the media are not covering the pro labor, pro union, demonstrations taking place all over our country? Another proof that the media is a propaganda agent for the richest 400 that own 1/2 of our country and covet the other 1/2.

first: i know everything that happens in my home (i presume ;) ).
second: at the general level: except for personal experience almost all you know is from external sources.
