Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper.”   —   Thomas Jefferson

(Even Thomas Jefferson didn’t trust the corporate media!  And, believe me folks, it has only gotten much much worse.  They tell us only what they want us to know, and they frame it as though we should never question it.  And, it’s not restricted only to the “news”.  Even the late night talk shows went out of their way to dismiss Bernie Sanders, despite the facts that he polled much higher than the CORONATED ONE, and he drew five times more people to his rallies than she did.  But, even with the earliest of the primary wins they kept telling us that he couldn’t win?  And, whenever they would report on her popular vote “majority” they would conveniently omit that her primary wins were mainly in closed primary states, where Independents could not participate.  If you want an unbiased look at what’s really going on in this country, and the world, you need to listen/read alternative news sources, and also some from other countries.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

Answer:  KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

(For me, this was the toughest Sunday Jumble in quite a while.  Only one of the jumbles was a gimme for me, and that was “forgot”.  It took me quite a bit of time to un-jumble “relent”, “karate” and “disown”.  And “cuckoo” seemed a little too obvious, so I had to double check the spelling in the dictionary.  Not surprisingly, all of today’s jumbles came up as new.  And, both “cuckoo” and “hippie” are new clue words.  Our pal, ralis95, will have to update his world famous clue word database for those two.  The answer letter layout was  a very nice jumble, but getting the final answer was a little anti-climatic,  considering the tough time I had with the clue words.  The cartoon and the dialog really helped in getting the answer.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
