Note of possible CNN publishing error / typo': Companion Chart showing ‘Foreign Governments’ “record dumping” of US bonds, which lists amounts from September to December 2015. Then finishes showing an amount of 57.2 billion for January “2015“. Shouldn’t that read January of 2016. This in CNN’s story by Matt Egan “Foreign governments dump U.S. debt at record rate”. March 16, 2016. CNN Money, Investing Guide.

Lots of discussion of "accountability". Rarely hear discussion of media accountability for widespread public
misinformation (Obama's born in Kenya, no global warming, foreign aid is 25% of US budget, ++). If the media's
role and mission is to inform the public, is someone doing something wrong if the result is so poor?
