I don't think this guy cares. I know people think he cares and he even gives off the impression he cares - but I don't believe it. You can't troll as effectively as he does and care what people think.
However, this is an opinion. I may be wrong. I also seem to be one of the few that can differentiate between an opinion and a fact.

Ummmmm... Yeah? I couldn't agree more. I just don't believe the media believes it.
I'd go further and argue that the spirit of the 1st amendment is just as important as the actual amendment. What good is the law itself when financial interests can silence someone? I'm sure you know what I mean. Hopefully we agree!
