Are we underestimating the damage corporate media is doing to us?

During work tonight, one of our guests was more then a little upset with the state of our union. Trying to politely put the issue off, I said that we had to roll our sleeves up and get a lot of work going. His response?

I just want the bastard dead.

Working with people who think like this isn't possible. I worry what the end game will look like.

Hopefully this post gets this out of my head cause I need some sleep. Nite all.

All one needs to do is look back at 1930's Germany for how real and dangerous it can be.

on the new EPIX movie channel, and NBC with Brian Williams was definitely complicit in the cover up story. They are not to be believed anymore. Just tools to their right wing corporate masters.
