If ABC is moving toward the middle you will see it in their news programing. The problem in that industry is that most broadcast news people are already corrupt. You would have to get rid of most of the reporters, producers and writers and start over with young people. CNN, when they first hit the screen, was like a breath of fresh air in contrast to the alphabet networks. But over time they hired the pseudo intellectual airheads from other networks. And Ted Turner married Jane Fonda and started fancying himself as an internationalist. I really would like to see ABC news go back to the Howard K. Smith days.

Do not fear the enemy, for your enemy can only take your life. It is far better that you fear the press, for they will steal your HONOR. That awful power, the public opinion of a nation, is created in America by a horde of ignorant, self-complacent simpletons who failed at ditching and shoemaking and fetched up in journalism on their way to the poorhouse. -Mark Twain

"A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victim, and he wears their face and their garments and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the plague." - Marcus Tullius Cicero, Roman Orator --- 106-43 B.C.

Speaking of traitors, today here in America, the media is the government ........... what does it say about the government when the media does not serve the Republic's best purposes?

".....and start over with young people"
Well they would have to be pretty young since I do not know any journalism school in the country that does not produce leftist journalism majors...
