Mad_Max Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I agree jailbait. I try to get info from reliable sources not drudge! Not that familair with borderlandbeat. Could you let us know the reliable sources in this country (Mexico) that you do get information from. I specifically exclude sources in the US and Canada unless they have a significant number of reporters stationed in this country - because if not, they are getting their information from sources in this country (Mexico) - that is, second hand. I am always looking for national sources that are reliable - so please do share with this board - the Mexican sources that you prefer for accurate news - excluding Borderland Beat of course. Note - I am aware of a few - but the question is directed at the poster - versus those that read the national newspapers - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWolf Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 What is, and isn't reliable? A lot of people believe that any source that doesn't agree with their opinion is not reliable. I don't have any idea why someone would consider Borderlandbeat an unreliable source otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, that blog is not for the faint of heart. Both I get RSS feeds from both - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeannie Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 agree - el narco blog is also what I consider reliable - and CNN apparently uses that as a source. However, that blog is not for the faint of heart. Both I get RSS feeds from both - I too read the El Narco Blog using Google translate with Google Chrome. By far one of the most trustworthy sources I've found yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karen3678 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I didn't post that borderland beat was not a reliable source , I questioned that Drudge was! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Not sure why you would think that since Drudge is mostly links to stuff like AP, WSJ and other "mainstream" stuff. Bear in mind that the media tends to just pick up stuff from other media and repeat it. The story on both sites was clearly tied back to the Mexican authorities.
