Why no media relating Alito's procorporate rulings to the miner's tragedy? |
|
Two huge stories occurring in the same timeframe and no one can see how they are linked?
Alito always sides with corporations against regulations, consumer rights and the safety of workers and their rights.
Yet NO MEDIA can bother to mention this?
The death of 12 miners last week due to nonenforcement of safety regulations and NO MEDIA dares mention the connection.

4. Well, GOP cronies spent the 80s and 90s buying control of the media while |
|
many Democrats were sitting in their offices crafting legislation in hope to protect consumers and workers and American citizens.
All GOP had to do was continue buying up the media to get to their fascist goals for the 21st century.

5. Maybe because they are playing to what media will talk about - Disgusting |
|
Catch22 that always seems to work against the Dems.
We just went through an entire campaign where media editted out most of the important discussion of issues.
I hope some Dems ARE bringing it up, and I damn sure wish a Judiciary member would.
