Actually I watch everything in the media with a HEAVY dose of skepticism. As a person who did more historiography than's good for a person, you know that every primary and secondary source, no matter how accurate and dispassionate it attempts to be is colored by a certain bias, which jumps out when you read it/see it/listen to it. The basic rule of historiography, which I've learned too late in my academic career is that everyone has an angle even if they don't know it. That's why a saltshaker is always useful when dealing with history lol.
