Are individual reporters defying their Corporate Media masters?

[Jade Fox]

Has the situation in NO disgusted them so much they are saying, "screw
it, I'm going to tell the truth and if you don't like it fire me!"

I don't have cable, so I get all my news from the internet. But from what
I've been reading on DU, extrordinary things are happening on the
broadcast media, open anger and disgust at the Bush Administration
being the main one.

1. yes, but they couldn't do it alone; the mike would get cut n/t

[Robeson]

2. I don't know. All of my news comes from the internet, primarily through..

...foreign sources. Perhaps those who watch MSM are seeing something really different within MSM.

[Jade Fox]

5. It seems that they are seeing something different.....n/t

[Skittles]

3. yes

whoring for bush is one thing; watching babies die of dehydration is another

[Jade Fox]

4. Ironically (I guess it's ironic anyway) they can see the same thing..

going on in Iraq. Maybe because most reporters haven't seen it with their
own eyes it hasn't turned their stomachs, but what do they think happens
in a war?

6. Bill Maher pretty much asked Anderson Cooper about this last night

he was like the one thing that the hurricane did for us is actually bring our press corps back and have them do their jobs!

[Jade Fox]

7. Did Cooper or Maher say that?

[Michydem]

10. maher said that

to cooper and then said where were the questions on 9/11 and Iraq..and cooper didn't agree with him on those points but said they want answers and are only geting "responses"

[DeepModem Mom]

8. Or is it possible that even corporate America...

is getting nervous under Bush's "leadership"?

[Jade Fox]

9. It's possible.....

but I can't figure out why they didn't get nervous a long time ago
given they way Bush has pushed the economy to the edge.
