Yea - separating style from content etc.

We could have a raw-information feed then be able to use "style-sheets" 
from Fox / CNN / The Beeb / AJ etc according to the type of 
spin/lies/distortions that we find most palatable.

This would be an improvement on the current situation (where the likes 
of Fox don't actually do any reporting anymore) because if in doubt, you 
could always go back to the raw numbers/sources, so at least the 
lies/spin/distortions that we get are based on a common understanding of 
reality.


This will never happen by the way.
