Yeah, yeah, yeah...So what if he didn't get the majority of the popular vote. Bush got mine, and many others to boot. And I can tell you that the liberal mass media sure as hell doesn't represent me!

The Media

elections by saying Gore won
Florida.
Wake up America

The fact that the press refers to its customers as a 'constituency' or a 'fourth branch' is its problem. The media is a for profit business. It serves a marketplace, and the marketplace has customers.
If the quality of the product drops, the customers go elsewhere. All Bush is doing is calling attention to the obvious. He's saying, "I've seen your numbers, and you don't have the market share you used to have."
Nothing sinister about it. The first press agency that comes back to the facts is going to start coining ching. Fox started out that way, and then Bill McCuddy starting getting a lot of play.
There is SO MUCH MASSIVE NEWS that gets no ink that it begs the question of the 'market leaders' in the news busienss: "Who did you sleep with to get your job?"
