I have to wonder why the media ignored or downplayed the peace marches during the Shrub administration, but are giving full coverage to the wingnuts who are downtown today, yammering about things they know nothing about. What's up with that?

1. The media is corporate, and therefore promotes those who |
|
push for less taxes and less regulations for Corporations.
In otherwords, the Media doesn't give a fig about America, only profits.

5. and frenchie ends the thread with the first reply |

what's really telling is that the corporate media (nbc in this case)went outside of what they usually (99.9%) refer to as the 'official' estimate (those given by fire depts. police etc.)and made up their own. "No no, it wasn't 50 to 70k like the fire dept. said it was more like 100's of thousands"
Did they do that with the anti-war numbers?
lolz, of course they didn't

Crazy as they are, they are STEALING THE SHOW!!
