With resources like ZeroHedge it is always about sensationalism. As per Wikipedia (no plagiarism intended), "events and topics in news stories are selected and worded to excite the greatest number of readers and viewers". Since most people are prone to overreacting, the stories like the impending collapse of the dollar system (aliens invasion, nuclear holocaust, global warming, whatever currently fits that purpose) are always finding their audience even if the events described should have happened long ago according to their sources

You begin to separate the wheat from the chaff after you learn it the hard way, in most cases. It is difficult not to fall victim to this kind of propaganda as it is aimed at your emotional side (as any such stuff), i.e. something which you feel as true and thus heavily forced to consider true from deep within even if you are fully aware that it is not. Try reading this stuff, and you instantly get caught up in this kind of thing. As they say, it ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble as it's what you know for sure that just ain't so
