Just as an example, I've heard at least three explanations for why building 7 at the World Trade Center collapsed, one of which is likely to be the truth (or darned near close enough), but there's little to no chance we'll ever know at this point. The credibility of those who actually know has been fouled by the politics of the war on terror, and the messengers who would bring their knowledge to us (the various news agencies an academic institutions) are suspect when it comes to these issues. Too many of these people have an interest in what the public opinion is for us to truly take them seriously.
