Friday, March 4, 2005 4:10 p.m. EST Kerry: Something Wrong With Media
Still smarting from his election defeat last year, Sen. John Kerry blasted the mainstream media during a panel discussion at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library earlier this week, saying they had contributed to an atmosphere of fear and lies.
"There is something wrong with who is arbitrating the truth," he said, according to Boston's Daily Free Press. "When fear is dominating the discussion, we have a problem."
Kerry said news conglomerates - particularly of broadcast news - were a large part of the problem. "The corporatization of the media has taken away some of the muckraking," he complained.
Kerry also criticized President Bush, saying his tax cut program had created a "middle-class squeeze."

"Kerry said news conglomerates - particularly of broadcast news - were a large part of the problem. "The corporatization of the media has taken away some of the muckraking," he complained."
This is actually a good point, but it is coming from the person who benefitted enourmously from the above concept.

With comments like this from Skerry, I imagine that once in a while, he holes up in a "quiet place" to sweat and tremble and mutter to himself as he tries to believe his own words. And in his stupor, he still does not have a connection with reality.
I am still immensely happy we didn't get this whithered delusional wretch as president.

He's coming to our POV. Okay, no he's not. He's kow-towing to the idiot DUmmies who think that the media is "conservative".

In other words, what Kerry's saying is: "The media is left-wing, but not left-wing enough. They didn't create a 'cult of personality' for me the way the Nazi media did for Hitler, and as a result I'm crying like a stupid whiny baby."

So this is what happened to his face.

What exactly is John mad about? I think he's still a little upset that all his friends have hit puberty and now they won't pick him for dodgeball.
