They're not Mainstream! WE'RE the mainstream. Old Media, or Legacy Media, or Media Wing of the Democratic Party. Please.

They'll be going away on their own. I've already seen references in official AP stories referencing the "Old Media". They're not the "MSM" anymore. See Tagline.

You're right.

I wrote this over and over again the other day.

*******

What a bullet we dodged Tuesday, what a tragedy if Kerry had cheated his way to a few more votes somehow in Ohio.

*******

YES! And we all must STILL REMEMBER that the evil old media who almost forced this FRAUD of a man on America is still out there spinning their BULL. They haven't gone away, and they ALMOST won.

If it weren't for some of the more blatantly repulsive and offensive advocates for Kerry, the old media may have pulled it off!

Don't ever quit trying to rid America of the old media. The old media is America's most ruthless and destructive institution.

Old media MUST be destroyed.

These liberals want to return to the days of "wandering in the wilderness" because they don't want to obey God. They want to do their own thing in complete opposition to God's Commandments. The liberal Jews have a "return to Egypt" mentality where God was not so visible and influential,in their thinking, until Moshe returned.

What MSM?

Isn't that some distant concept the Internet and pay TV pretty much dealt with already?

No, it's not time to get rid of it.

It's time to capture control of it.

That has been the failing of conservatives for 40 years. We have let liberals gain full control of all the major media.

The major media will continue to play an important roll in the culture of our country. Like it or not. To think otherwise is silly.

BTW, boycotts really don't work in the long run with T.V.

The way to put the final nails in the coffin of the MSM is though intelligent persuasion.

There are some people (flat earthers) who will never be convinced of anything but Bush is Hitler and we are entering into a theocracy.

Let them live in their own reality as long as they don't hurt themselves or someone else.

Daddydoo,

You are correct pointing out that we should another moniker instead of MSM. They are not mainstream thus the acronym is incorrect.

A wise sage said that whoever controls the vocabulary controls the outcome.

Suggested substitutions: OM = Old Media; SLME = Slow Media Elite; NOPJs = No Pajamas; ABRs = Association of Biased Reporters (Dan Rather, Emperor).

I'm certain the Freeper community can easily top my off the cuff suggestions. Let's hear them!

like a child, you spank him when he goes too far.

RICO would do nicely in the case CBS and who knows how many others. So, who's going to step up to the plate?

Tony Snow, today on the radio, rejected MSM for referring to the media. He said it now should be HBM - (Has Been Media)

I don't believe in the freedom to propagandize

The First Amendment wouldn't be necessary if we never heard anything disagreeable.
The market can force changes on the MSM and it may.  It's not up to you or me to
"rid our country of the MSM."  This isn't a new Reich.
