""There needs to be a clear distinction between journalism and advocacy," "
Not going to happen, we just have to have a 'louder' voice. Free Republic is one avenue!
yeah, free republic is part of the new media, and the old media's controlled by the left.
rush had a good take on it the other day. he said that the left tightened its hold on the media as the democrat party fell out of favor, loosing congress and the presidency.
i agree with that. the newspapers like the los angeles times actually were readable in the 1970s and 80s, but gradually became shrill advocacy journalism.
advocacy journalism arose, of course, guess when, in the late 1960s.
