Fellow Cowards (per Eric Holder),
The mainstream media is nothing but a leg of the democratic party who hide behind the freedom of the press posing as journalists. It is time they be exposed! It is time for us to take back the control of information they have hijacked away from America and enable the people to get the truth and not the agenda.

It is folly to think that such a rational idea or argument could be achieved through the very channels which oppose it.
If you want your media back, you better stop looking to corporate-sponsors to look out for your interests and not theirs.
MSNBC, Fox, CNN, they are all accountable to advertisers, not viewers.
You could create your own, with smaller audiences using mailings or even public access TV. I keep my family informed on these issues constantly, including friends and coworkers.
Democrats or Republicans, there is very little difference between the two, just different shades on the same side of a coin. As far as our media being censorship, scripted, unreported, and controlled, I totally agree. The fourth estate is dead. They no longer report on the actions of our government or congress. Oh, once in a while they do but it’s in interval spurts and only if an ideal in congress conflicts with some corporate ideology. Unbiased and truthiness is just news advertisement, it does not have to reflect upon the actuality of it content.
Television does not represent truth; it represents an amusement park, a circus, a carnival, stage actors, football players, it is the boredom killing business. Do not be tempted to believe the illusions television spins, the altered realities presented by boardroom executives. People worship television in that they emulate what they see, eat what they are told to eat, ware the clothing they are told to ware, and believe the political beliefs they are inundated with. Television is the conduit of mass mind reprogramming.
Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know. “OUTFOXED: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism” Link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6737097743434902428
To kdtroxel,
You put way too much thought into this. Fox news and right wing talk radio would never have came into existence if the mainstream news were doing their jobs of reporting truth and facts instead of agenda. Truth will find a way.
No American wants truth, they want to be lied to. Truth would upset them. Then what, we yell at each other, impotent. The ability to question authority has been swept away by a drug we all take.

kd - again - you're over thinking it.
kdtroxel, I too believe it makes no difference which party wins the White House. The Office of the President is filled and run by the elite and the President himself is just a puppet who answers to the group of elites. Congress is controlled as well by those with the money and power. I have not seen OUTFOXED, but I believe the same elite own most news outlets and they determine what is reported, how it is reported or whether it is not to be reported. Main Stream Media have fed us lies and distorted the news for so long that my children tell me I am full of conspiracy theories when I present them with the truth. Where does this leave us? Well most of us are experiencing that right now.
My concern is Corporate (Elite) Control. The same Corporate control that controls both the Democrats and Republicans. We need truly open government with full opportunity for all parties. The Democrat and Republicans are really one in the same. They play games to make it appear otherwise.
