He’ll probably bail out the liberal ones, not conservative ones like the OC Register.

By the by, were all the auto dealers forced to close down either conservative or not Democrat donors?

If the government is funding a bailout, do they not only control the content of what is published? So much for the first amendment.

Well shoot-- isn't The New York Slimes already a "non-profit" enterprise? I mean, who thinks that they actually make money?

Nope, I think that the State-Run Media isn't in it for the profits-- otherwise they would look more like Fox News.

a bill on the Senate floor that would allow newspapers to elect to receive tax-exempt status all they have to do is promise not to endorse any political candidates (but they can report on the campaign).

"President Obama, brilliantly running his re-election campaign -- a campaign that for centuries will be admired for it's wisdom and benevolence will appear in Chicago tomorrow: oh, lucky town! Meanwhile, the Republican candidate seems to have avoided embarrassing themselves yesterday by mostly staying out of sight, leading some sources to say that yesterday was the candidate's best so far."

For forty years we've listened to the Mainstream Media spew their left-wing, secular, anti-American bias and the America people are sick of it.

Obama won't win over any Conservatives or Independents by doing this.

The punk in the oval orafice is looking to deprive me of the one pleasure I get from newspapers these days - their imminent demise.

He's got to be stopped and as humiliatingly as possible...

I hope he does bail them out.

It would be the nail in the coffin for the MSM. Look how great it’s been for the auto industry.

Let them fail. We already have Gov media. Newspapers created their own failure by the greed of their publishers.

I refuse to buy the Kansas City Falling Star. My last day as a subscriber was October 1, 2008.

They aren’t making anything now and not paying income taxes so if they put an item in the bill the makes it illegal to charge for online content it might be alright.
