There only flaw is when they try to act that always ends in disaster, the smartest kids you will ever meet and have enough capacity to withstand the most difficult of challenges, which is usually an impossible to defeat fo the average person. They should be more recognized. They are amazing individuals. They can definitely pack a punch, and should not be messed with.

n. Primarily mature newspaper and television news outlets that believe they are the final word on any topic. These news organizations fail to acknowledge newly formed news sources and don't seem to understand that when they leave out information or emphasize the aspects of a story that aren't really helpful or pertinent, that they will be found out by those who understand the situation and have access to multiple news sources.
Typically these legacy news sources can identified as the major broadcast television networks and major national newspapers that have been in existence long before there was cable television.
