MSM Name Change Required (Partisan Liberal Media)

The "MSM" label has stuck and gets a lot of play, but we need to revise it. It is not enough to imply that "Main Stream Media" means liberal lapdogs.

The MSM is no longer just biased, they are partisan. We need to press this issue and to that end I believe it would be very effective to replace the "MSM" referece with "PLM" i.e. Partisan Liberal Media.

PLM, or another suitable name, needs to become the next commonly understood household name. The DNC is simply the political wing of the PLM and we need to go after the PLM's credibility with all we've got. People who don't pay much attention need to wake up the propaganda that they are constantly being fed.

Or, how about Vast Left Wing Media?

Thirded.

Apparently State Run Media is Limbaugh’s phrase.
Fringe Media is Beck’s.

When talking, I find that I’ve said “State Run Media” quite fluently, naturally, without any special emphasis.

State Run Media is a phrase that has been used to describe the Media in Socialist countries, Communist countries, Dictatorships, where the Media is literally run by the State.

If Obama is anything like the dictator of a socialist country, it’s actually quite reasonable to call the media “state run media” It’s still a stretch, but not so much.

Fringe Media is a real term, but the truth of the matter is that, yes, Fox has more viewers than CNN, MSNBC and Headline News combined, but when you add in NBC ABC and CBS evening news shows, collectively, it really isn’t fringe.

If you’re looking for made up words, I’ve heard Lamestream.
I’m not sure how good that is, but it’s out there.

MUCH AGREE.

HFD . . . Hell’s Fart Dispensers wouldn’t be clear enough immediately.

How about:

GTM Globalist Tyrannical Media

or

GMS Globalist Media Stooges

or

TMS Traitorous Media Stooges

or

HMO Hell’s Media Outlets

or maybe . . .

HMF Hell’s Media Farters

or

CFM Commie Fascist Media

I say call it FLOUNDER.

Blutarski: "Dorfmann...I've given this a lot of thought. From now on, your Delta fraternity name will be, 'Flounder'.

Dorfmann: "Flounder? Why Flounder?"

Blutarski (burping): "Urp...WHY NOT!?"

Or as someone reminds us on another thread, the Lame Stream Media.

Old media is accurate, it doesn’t make an explicit political point which most of the suggestions do. I like it, it leaves a subtle impression, rather than state run media, which I also like, which is a bit more heavy handed.

If you’re talking to a liberal, you can use “old media” without necessarily being antagonistic. You really can’t use “state run media” without being antagonistic.

I’m not a big fan of cute sounding made up words or acronyms.

LOVE IT.

SCUM . . .

Though 3 letters is probably better.

[MNJohnnie]

I like the “sycophant media.”

[Quix]

PRESSTITUTES

is sure accurate.

BSM would be great.

[Vigilanteman]

I don't remember which freeper came up with it, but I always liked the term

enemedia

for two reasons:

1. The cheerlead for our enemies, both foreign and domestic.
   
2. They are full of crap and could use a giant enema to clean them out.
