American Citizens calling out the Corporate Media on Impeachment: Issue worth covering
Why hasn't the Press & Sun Bulletin covered or even mentioned the 35 Articles of Impeachment brought against President George W. Bush by Rep. Dennis Kucinich on June 9?

I checked the paper on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday ... nothing. Then I thought perhaps there would be coverage on the Web site. A search for Kucinich and impeachment did not locate this story.

Such a historic news item and no mention of it in the Press? What is going on here?

2. no echo chamber
When the right did it to Bill Clinton, they had deployed an assortment of pundits ready to push it, and also had an orchestrated set of media outlets that would bounce things back and forth. We have nothing like that.

Drudge, FOX, Murdoch, the Independent Womens Forum, the Heritage Foundation, Newsmax, Washington Times -- all of those entities and more cooperated in MAKING coverage of Clinton's sins.

3. It's obvious when you look at who owns the 'press'.
The bad guys have the microphone and they ain't givin' it up
