I am NOT a reporter.

I just think it’s important to mention that.  In this day where bloggers are given the same — if not more — credibility as actual journalists I believe it is important to remind everyone that I have no press credentials.  The closest to a journalistic background I have is two years on my high school cable news show and a year on the newspaper staff.  I did some interesting pieces during that time, but it doesn’t make me a reporter.  Hell, I don’t even have my own fact checker, I have to rely on Google.

So please don’t quote me for your school paper.  Don’t act like I’m the New York Times.  I’m a guy with a laptop and internet access.  I could be the drunk bum down the street for all you know.  Use a little common sense and find REAL sources.  That way I don’t have to worry about getting angry e-mails from your teachers complaining about how I’m “leading naive teenagers on.”  I’m not.  You’re just stupid.  You’re stupid, your students are stupid, and this is why I no longer have any faith in the public school system.
