How is it our candidates get so much scrutiny and yet the media lets Bush lie about |
|
everything under the sun?
It is odd that the media only wants to look at people who are running, managing to focus only on the trivial, and could care less about the terrible things people do once they are in office.
Our national media is a joke.

1. Couldn't have anything to do with the fact that 6 enormous corporations |
|
control well over 90% of all the media in this country, could it?

2. I think the people have had it with Bush. |
|
He will be gone soon and every one will be happy with that. He hardly will sell a newspaper.

3. I Think People Have Had It With The Media Too |

I can't even tolerate watching these so called "news" stations anymore. Thank God for the Internet.

4. those talking heads are sort of silly. |
|
It is hard to watch grown men act like children most of the time. They do not seem to ever bring up anything that counts just this silly flag pin stuff. Can it really be that they aim at about 5th grade level? After Bush got in for the second time the news stations dropped in my thinking. Can most voters be this silly?

5. Because they're not interested in actual information |
|
They're interested in ratings. And a horse race is great news for their ratings game.
Don't kid yourself that there's any interest in informing the public involved!
