It's a go-nowhere conversation, so don't act like shiner is talking out of his ass - he's doing exactly what you're doing. You're just sure he's wrong, which makes little sense to me.

I don't think It's a game.
Shiner made the comment that "most Americans," or something to that effect feel a certain way about the media. If I were going to make a comment for "most" of anyone, I'd take a survey or something.
My comment was about a much smaller "sample," and it was from my personal experience, and clearly labled as such.
I don't think there's much similarity there.
