Fake Quotes

Even liberal humorist Roy Blount Jnr. (on the Garrison Keillor show, whatever it's called now) is repeating the fabricated Kerry quote, "Who amongst us doesn't love NASCAR," not recognizing it's a fake. (Bob Somerby continues to debunk it here.)

This is small potatoes when large portions of the American public willingly believe Bush Administration lies about Iraq and 9/11, WMDs, Abu Ghraib and al Qaqaa. Maybe it's a waste of time to be so hard on the media whores when all they're doing is catering to a lucrative market segment -- the willfully ignorant.
