Is it time to Media Blast the MSM on coverage of Treasongate?
If we worked on it over the weekend maybe next week's coverage would be different? Any ideas?

1. Wait until
the indictments start to fall. The MSM will ignore it all until they absolutely have to deal with it. Put your energy somewhere else until the time is right.

5. I concur.
Treasongate could be just the beginning. A vast, powerful component of the American public is just beginning to see that these guys are criminals. Soon, they'll suspect it, then they'll know it, and then, sooner or later, they're gonna be pissed.

But the rub is this: the Republicans in charge really are criminals, and it's a committee of them, which makes them even more sociopathic. They got where they are by their ability to confuse and misinform average Americans. And now they control the largest arsenal in the history of the world.

So let's give the peeps a little bit of time to take all this in. It looks as if the wheels of justice are turning for the moment. That helps, but we the people have to be the ones who take back America. Some of us are slower than others.

3. I have some massive ideas

I suggest we start with NBC/MSNBC

They must clean house to cover this story fairly.

Their cast of characters are in this so deep they
couldn't possibly cover it objectively.
Fire: Monica Crowley/ Nixon operative
Chris Matthews(part of story)
Andrea Mitchell(part of story)
Tim Russert (big part of story)

Joe Scarborough - republican operative
Tucker Carlson - republican operative.

Just a few ideas. I'm lousy with keyboard activism,
Could you call me or me call you.

4. Treasongate makes them ALL nervous. They've all been complicit
to some degree. "Terra. Terra. Terra." These anchors and reporters aren't stupid. They know they're peddling lies.

Those talking heads who had nothing specific to do with Plame/Wilson could redeem themselves now by actually REPORTING what's going on.

6. Media is quiet on predictions because
the end of the investigation is so near. If it were still months away they can speculate and nobody will remember how wrong they were, this close in it might make them look bad.

I'm doing the same thing now--wait & see.
