The news channels don't always tell the real story.

Well, yeah. The issue is just that people cannot be sure of how trustworthy other people are, and because of that, anarchism will inevitably lead to a relatively high level of violence.

No, of course they do not! Think about it, they are owned by corporations, and thus serve moneyed masters. So, therefore they just try to tell "good stories", and work to protect the capitalist system. Why would they not??

The BBC is a public service broadcaster so it is not supposed to be for purely commercial concerns.

You are right, the BBC is not supposed to be for purely commercial interests, and that is the reason why the British government set it up!

Would you say that Press TV differs from the stereotypical, commercial news stations who only care about the ratings?

Here is a real question:
Can AG make a stone so big that he couldnt lift it?

That is probably true. It may lead to all sorts of crazy contradictions, but who cares?

If a pile of crap that is left out over a significant enough time for it to basically solidify is considered a stone, then yes, given enough time I probably could make one of those that I couldn't lift. Otherwise, I have my doubts.
