"For the life of me I can not figure out WHY it's "ok" to be a part of....or to have Left Wing Media....yet it's NOT "ok" to be a part of, or to have Right Wing Media? "

Shoot, that's easy..... they are right and we are wrong.

Well, look at it this way: if it weren't for Moyers, the alternative media would probably have been decades behind where it is currently.

Moyers should absolutely be hung by the balls for what he did with that masty smear campaign against Barry Goldwater. I think it takes a lot of balls for an arrogant stuffed shirt like Moyers, who is arguably the pioneer of the politics of personal destruction, to then even dare to condemn the modern scene as nasty and uncivil.

In a way, the new media is our way of getting even with blue-blood, elitist snobs like Moyers. They thought nothing of slandering our parents, our grandparents, our home towns, our states, and our churches for the last three decades. They have barely had a decade of counter-argument and are already declining at a record pace. This is truly a testament to the intellectual impotence that now dominates the far left.

I will sorely miss having Moyers as a front-and-center poster boy for the far left. He was probably the single best reason to argue for defunding PBS that ever walked upon the earth.

After growing up with,and having to endure watching, all the decades of the old media trying to shape public opinion,it's great to be able to witness,and be a part of, the rise of the new media.

The sun has finally shown on their leftist ways.

Left-wing media types complaining about right-wing media is a bit like the Nazis complaining about Italian excesses in Ethopia during WWII.

I don't care what story he's telling as he's "going out," as long as he's gone.

Thank God!

The story does admit that "humanist" Moyers used to be a top aide to the very liberal President Lyndon Johnson.

LBJ would be a conservative Democrat by today's standards.

"PBS . . . where the United States Government and the Exxon Corporation bring you . . . The Pete Seeger Show!!!"

LOL Yes, it's the station that rails against the evil capitalism that sustains it. Very Worm Ourbouros concept.

Communist Playbook, my friend.

Accuse your opponents of doing what you are already doing.

"We have an ideological press that's interested in the election of Republicans"

Oh really? CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN et al had a religious conversion? When?

the right-wing media has [sic] become a partisan propaganda arm of the Republican National Committee," the Associated Press today quoted Moyers as saying.

Moyers is a Buffoon.

Good point.

I've deleted him from my "saved" (for next posting) file.
