Ah, yes. I suspect we're all nostalgic for the pre-PC proliferation
days when there were no self-proclaimed "experts" that knew next
to nothing, but had loud voices.

We had them then, too. Just not so many and not so believable to the
average news reader/watcher. The credibility of the so-called "experts"
continues to grow as the gullibility of the average person continues to
grow with it. Witness the growth of "Identity Theft" as more and more
people shop online and respond to ads of questionable nature.
