Concur. As far as our mess goes, we are trying. Our enemies of the Republic and freedom are strong: the Mainstream Media is 99% socialist/Marxist, the Donkey Party is Marxist, the RINO Party is socialist, and then there's those of us who believe in the Constitution. I suspect that the MSM in the UK is much like ours and is in league with the enemy trying to destroy you. I've always wondered about the MSM suicide pact with the enemy — don't they know they'll be among the first ones shot if the bad guys take over? I guess DENIAL isn't a river in Egypt

Well said, MasterGunner, but I have to say the press in the UK sometimes seems more free than the press in the USA, especially on subjects involving us.

We often see stories posted here on FR from British outlets that don't appear in the DNC media of the United States.

You've nailed the mind numbed robotic lockstep of the American Media. They are like programmed zombies that only can think and respond in one certain, predictable way. They simply cannot tell the truth. They cannot just present the facts without their peculiar spin attached or, worse, they spike any truth about the story. Worse, they simply refuse to cover a story because it hurts their agenda or political friends.

At least an American that wants to be informed has the Canadian, Australian, and British Media. They have many of the same faults as their American cousins, but a glimmer of fair and original thought shines through on occasion.

The American Media idiots will slam Fox News and Talk Radio because they have become the alternative media to the brainwashed opinions of the MSM. Fox News isn't as conservative as it is painted by the rest of the MSM. What Fox News does is to offer a relief from the nonstop propaganda of the MSM: ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/MSNBC/LAT/NYT/WaPo/Boston Globe/Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The conservative Talk Radio hosts thrive precisely because they are NOT liberal spin machines. Liberal Talk Radio programs, like Air America, have gone broke and aren't on the air because no one listened. In the television Media, both CNN and MSNBC are in a accelerating death spiral to bankruptcy. Which one will win? It's too close to call. One last thing about the penetration of the "fair and balanced” Fox News into the American Media market — Fox News is only carried on cable TV or on satellite hookup. Even with this small market share, they positively trounce the usual band of suspects on TV news.
