Great thread!

But, see how much of this voluminous information gets on and stays on the mainstream media. That is the rub, and why the Dems. may win the election.

It is all so clear what was going on with Iraq, but what percentage of the American voting public are going to learn of it?

Thank the evil mainstream media liars for keeping Americans in the dark and voting Democrat. The Mainstream Media is the actual, most destructive 'axis of evil'.

The Politics of Hollywood
Uncommon Knowledge ^ | July 20, 2001 | Peter Robinson
A poll by the Center for the Study of Social and Political Change in 1992, eighty-three percent of film and television writers, directors and producers voted for Bill Clinton. Eighty-three percent. The vote that Clinton received in the country at large, forty-three percent.

No Bias in Media, ha ha, tee hee


... with a nod to Tom Sowell, I call the Media the Jackal Pack Press... or sometimes I like to point out that the Press and Entertainment divisions of the media are "Two Wings of the same Vulture..."

Nine out of ten of their members share the same leftist ideology, and swap talking points like two horny teenagers swapping spit.
( Pardon the bluntness, but that's the unwelcome image that springs to mind. )

Journalism's definition is reports of novelty which interest readers/listeners. Failing to interest an audience is commercial failure, thus irrelevance.

The rules such as "if it bleeds, it leads" follow from that. The rules of journalism filter out what will be important to our posterity, and put trivia under a microscope.

But it's not true that journalists have no interest in old things; every five years we are treated to a retrospective on Watergate.
