Credible sources?

Those who continue to rail at the credibility of the "liberal" press might want to stop occasionally and consider the alternatives.

Here is a news item from The Associated Press that was printed in Wednesday's Reporter-News:

"AUSTIN - A Republic of Texas member was arrested Tuesday for filing a fraudulent lien against a moving company and ignoring a court order to explain why she did it.

"Austin police and Travis County deputies arrested Jo Ann Canady Turner as she was taking her garbage from her apartment, according to the Texas attorney general's office.

"Charged with two counts of contempt of court, Turner was placed in the Travis County Jail and was to be arraigned Wednesday morning."

Compare that with this fax the Reporter-News received from Republic of Texas sources:

"Today, Texian National Jo Ann Turner was kidnapped by agents of the State of Texas, who are operating on the soil of the Republic of Texas under treaties and conventions as foreign agents of the United Nations in their continued efforts to maintain United Nations control over Texas and deny the people of Texas their right to independence."

Which account sounds more credible to you?
