What would be the point?

I watched 9/11 loose change and it raised alot of questions in my mind. I thought something fishy was going on.

Then 6 months later I watched some guys from popular mechanics totally own the loose change guys.

In the youtube age, anyone can make a documentary style film that looks credible, and there are all kinds of idiots who will take that information as gospel and crusade around the web with it.

That's why it's more important now than it ever has been, to be careful what sources you trust. Stick with ones that follow true journalistic standards such as truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness and public accountability.

If what you're reading or watching wouldn't even last a day on wikipedia because it doesn't meet their standards for reliable sources and citations, then it's probably not true.
