One of these years you really need to take a course in logic. An appeal to authority (see http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-authority.html) is an invalid argument. To make is simple for you, here's a rough sketch: An Appeal to Authority is a fallacy with the following form: 1. Person A is (claimed to be) an authority on subject S. 2. Person A makes claim C about subject S. 3. Therefore, C is true. You are claiming that a certain BUSINESS journalist says that the "media" has a liberal bias. He is a journalist so he "ought" to know what he's talking about. Ergo, the media has a liberal bias. See the similarity. Is there any real evidence for that. If not then you're just blowing hot air, and not out your mouth I suspect. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:277017 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
