I have tuned in reasonably regularly. I think what they say on there is generally what the person saying it believes to be correct.

That I agree with, but that wasn't what I meant, and judging from anecdata, not everyone can make that distinction. It's easy to be convinced by presentation rather than content.

"Generally correct" is a much lower bar than "always correct". It might even be a bar that JRE can pass.

Edit: where they're talking about factual matters I mean, not where they talk about aliens, big foot, and other obviously outlandish ideas where they're clearly just shooting the breeze.
