The American Compass, meeting on C-Span, under Booknotes, 9-01-04, featured keynote speakers, who said that We now, have the "old media", and the "new media". It was explained the "old media", is the television stations, press, newspapers and so on. The "new" media is the blogs, forums, websites, that have become widespread and popular. The American Compass speakers said; The "old" media did not want to face or question Kerry's past, and that the Swifties and their book, "Unfit For Command", did the job, for getting past them.
The question now is will the new media be as activist as the old? So far, all signs point to yes.
To the tune of the Beetles "Yesterday"
Yesterday, news was what we would say
Now the truth comes out everyday
Oh, We believe in yesterday.
Gradually, propaganda is not what it use to be
There's too many ways for the world to see.
Now the spin is plain to see
We could lie, show one side, or hide facts away
When... we... could be so wrong , how we long for yesterday!
Yesterday, the camera only pointed our way.
Now our viewers are turning away.
Oh, we believe in yesterday
That is so Beautiful. Thank you, Nateman. Love it!
Rush is using the terms 'Old Media' and 'New Media" now too.
I feel soooo goood to be new....!!!
I'm going out to interview that waitress down at the Lobster House and grab a bite, the I'll be at the gym for the rest of the afternoon.
Just recently, the concept of "old media" versus "new media" struck me. And I put that connection into those exact words when I posted the revelation on my state locale.
I guess this concept has just become sooo obvious in light of how desperate liberal journalists, who comprise 91% in journalism, have become. They boldly skew the truth to suit their own agenda. And it seems that priority one for them is to sabotage Bush's re-election.
And you see, what we have going for us, is that all of us, want the best and the truth. We, of the New Media, are a growing bunch of people who are determined to have our T's crossed and our I's dotted. Factual, in other words.
Like Bagdad Bob, or Pravda, the old media will not accept the new world. The old media will continue to stick to their pre-programmed script, while they go down in flames.
Denial is all that they have left.
Oooh, I said "left".
True, its like Pravda, etc. Except the American old media, doesn't have a gun to their heads telling them what they had better report. Its more like, they laugh among themselves as they giggle and tee hee over what they can make us regular citizens believe for this week.....
