We have become like the old Pravda watchers...you have to figure out what's going on by seeing who is NOT present on the shows and reading subtle signs, much like tea leaves.

Exactly so! We have to train ourselves to hear the faint echo, the mirror image, or the negative of what IS being addressed. One example: Every time a "crisis" fades from view, we must notice and ask why. Often it is because the "crisis" was a fraud or a lie.

Very insightful and thanks for saying it.

So true! The MSM's plan has effectively been to report this economic boom as a time of high pump prices and then, when the boom starts to slow as all booms must, report that we're in an economic downturn heading to recesssion.... having never once mentioned America was in a boom under Bush!

Unfortunately, to judge from polls, the plan is working.

Very good and we should keep track of them.

My list so far (feel free to add on) for this year:

Spying on American citizens (turns out to be listening to calls from overseas terrorist sanctuaries)

EXXon-Mobil's CEO's excessive retirement package (not unlike some big media stars like Uncle Walter Cronkite or Tom Brokjaw)

Sam Alito's membership in a supposed white supremacist group of Princeton alumni (Ted Kennedy still belongs to a Harvard group that doesn't allow women!)
