I was amused today while reading the online MSNBC News site to check out their weekly "News Quiz. This Einstein like brain teaser consists of ten questions, but one was about video games, one was about the music GRAMMY awards, and two were about sports. The remaining six were actually about the weeks news. Why do I find this a strange and sad reflection on what is commonly referred to amongst the intelligentsia as the "Main Stream Media?" Because MSNBC also has other weekly news quizzes, including one on sports and one on entertainment. What do you think the odds are on finding that 40% of the questions on both of these sites are actually about world news and events, rather than trivia? Don't worry, I checked them out, and the answer is ZERO.

You don't know who played shortstop for the Yankees in 1957? How can you run for president?
