TVNL Editor's Comments: I received an e-mail today that got me a bit ruffled, so I want to share a thought with you all today. When taking a position, or battling someone else’s position, it is important that the discussed positions are explained. It is not enough to take a position without having and expressing the information to back it up. You should back up your position with information and you should DEMAND others do the same when they present their position to you! Just a thought. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org
