I think this is how the media debunks everything now, label it, then you can put it in a folder and not have to worry about it. Once something has been properly labeled, you take away it's power, put it in it's own box.
I think thats just the way the goverment wants it. Divide and Conquer seem the status quo.

Yes, I also agree and I also think it is a way in which our media distracts us from using common sense to address imminent issues such as climate change, population growth, and peak oil- things we really can do something about to make our world better.

If only the media actually promoted critical thinking! Laughable, yes.
