As the faithful who've swallowed The Word won't even look at other sources of information -- not even when they tell them what they want to hear -- it will make sense to trawl through the right-wing press for items that simply tell it as it is.

Examples include this editorial in the National Review and one or two articles to the same effect:

The British Mail Online is very right-wing and finding real US news articles involves trawling through reams of porn and propaganda, but there are still plenty of items like this:

or

or gossip

Somehow, despite that girth, he's still as adept at foot-in-mouth as when he was a few months old...

The only trouble with all this is, as we know, that any item about their Gawd, however damning, will only make his votaries more ecstatically besotted than they were before.

Still... reports from Reality (as opposed to Real DTs) may well surface in addicts' minds during and beyond cold turkey...

Sure. Don't forget to mask up and wear gloves and protective clothing when you're doing your media research. Keep a gas mask at the ready...

As for DT telling the truth by accident, that's so killingly true-to-life!
