5. I would have to respectfully disagree
CSM (Christian Sci. Monitor) is one of the top rated Foreign Affairs news outlets....many TV "journalists" and News Paper people look to the CSM for Foreign affairs. Their views may be "twisted" but the MSM looks to them so I though it important. But, I also posted it for the, lets see if the MSM will run with it.

7. I'm simply talking about reframing people's perceptions of the media.
Edited on Wed May-11-05 10:24 AM by ClassWarrior
Any time we talk about the dominant media as "MSM", it just validates their corporate-controlled news management. We need to refer to them as the Corporate Media. The ones like the CSM who distinguish themselves by being fair and honest will avoid the taint by their professional conduct.

And I posted my framing rant simply as an aside. I fully agree and support the "let's see if the Corporate Media will run with it" aspect.

If you want to help people to see (your handle), help them to see that the majority of the dominant media is NOT mainstream - they're corporate tools.

8. I don't see why they don't, often the Corporate media quotes
the Washington Times as a source - we're a step above Reagan's favorite "funny paper" . . .

10. Neocon friend was *just* bragging on this one. Thanks!
Too great. A neocon friend of mine was just touting how we had "captured bin Laden's #2 & #3" as proof we are winning "the war on terror".

Thanks. Can someone nominate this for the front page?
