I agree with you completely!! The MSM is criminal in its behavior and I absolutely think they should be made to answer for their seditious actions!!

Most of what Americans read in their papers and see on television is the product of only a handful of giant corporations and Iraq is an on-going example of dishonest and blatantly incendiary "reporting" by agenda driven representatives of these mega-corporations. Reporting specifically intended to undermine national and international confidence in President Bush and his administration.

A review of the outrageously provocative "coverage" of Hurricane Katrina and NOLA serves to underscore the extent to which the "MSM" has joined forces with the radical left in an all out effort to overthrow a standing president. Such a review clearly demonstrates that these "Guardians of the peoples right to know" are not merely complaisant in this assault on the presidency of George W. Bush but that they, in fact, active participants!

They aggressively propagate malicious falsehoods and knowingly lie by omission, they willfully disseminate misinformation and disinformation and they go out of their way to facilitate and legitimize every radical entity's Bush-hating promulgations.

These people are players in what I think can rightly be called a form of "Information Warfare" and they are engaging in direct attacks on this nation which far more insidious and far more dangerous to us as a nation than are the attacks of the players in the War on Terror!

The above Joseph Pulitzer quote appears on an inscribed plaque visible to all upon enter the halls of the Columbia School of Journalism.
*See this article from 2003 by William F. Woo ~ 'Journalism and Serving the Public Trust'

While I know that the term "Information Warfare" is general used with regard to military, if you apply the early proponent of Information Warfare Thomas Rona's definition of the term you can see how it can adequately apply to the MSM:

"The strategic, operation, and tactical level competitions across the spectrum of peace, crisis, crisis escalation, conflict, war, war termination, and reconstitution/restoration, waged between competitors, adversaries or enemies using information means to achieve their objectives". Thomas Rona

I do not, however, think GWB is the one who should be going after the MSM ...... were he to try, he would most certainly be made to "look" even more the villain.

The pressure must come from within the industry ~ (although, since clinton allowed the consolidation of media sources into a handful of mega-conglomerates, there are few within the industry with courage to do so) and it must come from within the legislative branch of our government who owe it to the citizens of this nation to address and correct the unlawful actions taken under the clinton administration which left the flow of information to the public at large in the hands of a very few mega-corporations.

One has only to review the speeches given at the cRATconvention in 2004 to realize that this truly is an orchestrated effort to undermine/discredit/impeach President Bush ~ an ongoing vendetta against George W. Bush for having "STOLE" the Presidency in 2000, and the "Fourth Estate" is the means with which to "reclaim what is rightfully theirs" regardless of the cost!

IMHO, we cannot afford to ignore these attacks!
We must all be on the offensive to loudly expose this treason and sedition for what it is at each and every opportunity!
