Sorry y'all, but I still believe there is major unsolved problem that the writer barely touches upon. When you have people who don't know journalism, and don't know the subject, or who have such strong beliefs that they get in the way of facts -- and believe me we have those people -- there is a major problem. The story, any story, is like the candidate for homecoming queen. The results often are popularity of an idea or sometimes simple ignorance of truth. As highly useful as NewsTrust is, and as much as I respect the people using it, the results are no more accurate in many cases than a tone deaf person playing the violin, or someone who is color blind doing interior decorating. To judge the QUALITY of a story takes far more background in many areas than the majority of people here have. Raters, in my opinion, are all-too-often delivering their verdict on the personal popularity of the story.
