THE MEDIA IS DESTROYING THIS COUNTRY HANDS DOWN! Enough air-time to the losers. The speech, OMG

[rainy]

My blood just boils over the insane pounding the media allows the losers to do over Obama's every step. These people should be swatted away like gnats but the media keep allowing them all the air time. Even C-span had a discussion on the merits of Obama speaking to our children. The press is allowing losers to wine about it ad nauseam. I am so tired of this BS I can't even think straight.

1. why would they want to do that, do you think?

[rainy]

2. bottom line. The dollar. Controversy sells, they make money and their owners

get to keep on having all rules and laws favor their money grabbing practices.

3. I can't take it either. It is inane.

4. They are confusing the Fringe Kooks for the mainstream in a way I don't remember happening in the

past.

For example, I never remember John Birch types being treated as if they had anything legitimate to say.

Now any wackjob out there is given coverage.

7. It's the damn 24/7 cable TV cycle...infotainment . They shouldn't....

be allowed to call any of these stations "news" channels. There's too much fluff and opinion and nonsense.

Legitimate news shows shouldn't be part of profit generation for a network. Huge mistake made by Clinton, IMHO, which has affected this country more than we realize, given the dumbing down of Americans.

11. Yes. Injecting biased opinion into so-called news reports is not journalism.

And some of the BS eventually does become news and makes it to the MSM news channel that most americans watch.

[redqueen]

10. They see that things are changing... demographics are chaning,

and they see that they are losing their grasp.

We all should have seen this coming. They are getting desperate.

5. You have the power

To turn off your TV when it offends you.

[Cetacea]

6. You have the power

to ignore the powers that be.

[Neecy]

8. I don't worry about it

Honestly, more people tune in for a single football game than watch cable news in a week.

[DavidDvorkin]

9. We need a breakup of media monopolies

But we're not moving in that direction, unfortunately.

[SOS]

12. And when Shrub was President,

no left-leaning person was ever allowed to speak on the Wall Street media machine.

Birthers and "death panel" morons, day and night, to damage Obama.

If liberal parents had kept their children away from the My Pet Goat readings, they would have been dismissed as "left-wing lunatics, who won't even listen to Glorious Leader".
