| Summary, etc | Radford (managing editor, Skeptical Inquirer) decries the American media culture as one filled with lies, deceptions, and just plain meaninglessness. He comments about everything from smaller candy packages being labeled as being a "fun size" to broadcast news laziness about revelations that the United States government has been engaged in manufacturing weapons-grade anthrax. Alarmism and sensationalism are dissected and denounced and the harms of the deceptive media culture are discussed.
