In this style, pretty much *everything* is taught in semesters, and if the class has to go 2 or 3 hours a day then so be it. It fits in with taking entry-level college classes at the same time, and also gives kids the chance to graduate a semester early for whatever that's worth. Of course that doesn't mean the quote is true, but that it's possible.
It's pretty sad, but it seems like the only firm conclusion of this thread will be: if you want to learn the truth about a news story in this day and age, you practically have to go to the event and do your own investigation. You certainly can't count on anything from weblogs, and frankly local TV news isn't much better, and the national media? We all know how neutral Fox News and BBC are, or how reliably accurate CBS and the New York Times are. We may as well just read the World Weekly News and at least get a few laughs.

I learned in a documentary film that the WWN has the eighth highest circulation in the world.
Full Disclosure: That documentary was "So, I Married an Axe Murderer." If Farenheit 911 is a documentary, so is that funny little Mike Meyers tidbit, which I finally watched. *chortles* I rather enjoyed it.
