The left realized this long ago, which is why they now control practically the entire media, leaving everyone else on the fringes.

Fortunately, it's better than ever before.

This is really only working on folks older than me. The younger folks, anyone really who gets their info off the internet, is far less susceptable to that.

And I don't think it's a left/right thing specifically. I think that people who go into journalism are people who like to write, and give opinions, but don't have the gumption to actually do anything.

Now that does indeed sound like an L, but even some Cs have that trait. They're in an industry where they comment on things they have no experience in. It's a part of the system.

The only real solution is for people to read the same story from several different sources, that way they'll get both sides.

In other words, the solution is the internet!

I couldn't agree more. The Dinosaur media is still very powerful, however, and had a major hand in the 2006 Republican defeat. With any luck, in the coming years, their declining readership/viewership will become a huge money drain on the left with a decreasing level of return--kind of like Air America was.
