Actually, I think the prevalent thought to come out the last few weeks was that the nuMedia were a pack of head hunters. That I disagree with. Some wanted Rather's head, but only because he pushed fake memos to attempt to destroy the President during an election. I personally wanted him to stay because his presence discredits CBS more than his firing would have. I don't know of anyone that believed Eason would step down within a week. Concentration was on the release of a tape. I do agree nuMedia's primary interest is in Truth. I disagree that interest is not in "bringing down" Old media. Of course it is. Maybe stories pursued are not done with that as the conscious primary objective, but what do we think the result of offering alternative news sources and disaplying to the public their bias will be? The further discrediting of the Old Media and thus loss of their power on the electorate.

That is my goal and I will not deny it. Old media pretends to be an objective carrier of the news. They have used this to manipulate public opinion to sway towards their own Liberal bias. As long as they choose to serve as propaganda mouth pieces for the DNC under the banner of "objectivity" abusing public trust, I will seek their further erosion. If they choose to relinquish the mantle of objectivity, I will change my stance to that of a competitor. Ball's in their court.
