5. It May Just Have To Be...
Actually the corporate media world has been stagnate since their gambling casinos were closed down a couple years ago. A bunch are in bankruptcy and most have seen their values and profits shrink in the past couple years. Actually that list is updated regularly...a real good reference but also damn depressing when you see how deep their tentacles reach.

Cheers...

6. Television sells advertising period.
The people behind it have that as their primary objective and they have little interest in its content.

7. I don't believe that for a second
The people who own the people who own the media have too much at stake. Controlling the political agenda is worth literally trillions of dollars.
