It's fine to quote for profit propaganda and doctored, even nonsensical (electric sector?) statistics that parrot an industry's agenda...just don't try to bullshit your audience that you're somehow representing a viewpoint that has anything whatsoever to do with the public interest.
This is JayB's schtick. Unfortunately for him, he's not very good at it, at least with an audience that has half a brain.
I'm sure he's a smash hit at cocktail parties with his own kind, though.
Personally, I loath this form of propaganda under the guise of 'civil discourse'. I suppose that's kind of apparent.
