The Neomarxist who is helping to influence Obama’s media policy
the daily caller ^ | 6/11/10 | Mike Riggs

“Only government can implement policies and subsidies to provide an institutional framework for quality journalism.” Does that statement give you chills?

How about this one: “The news is not a commercial product. It is a public good, necessary for a self-governing society. Once we accept this, we can talk about the kind of media policies and subsidies we want.”

Or this one? “In the end, there is no real answer but to remove brick-by-brick the capitalist system itself, rebuilding the entire society on socialist principles.”

Reading the Free Press website they seem to be a media reform advocacy group. Looking at the issue form 10,000 feet - corrupt media indeed could use some reform - more free market media - not less. But these statements, it is communism controlled media stuff. What the heck ? An advocacy group for Big Brother ? With 500k members and 30 paid staff in DC alone ? They are for everything but a free press.

And they call themselves Free Press? Stunningly arrogant, IMO.

It’s all about control... Always has been, and always will be, with these elitist gasbags.

It’s time to take back the country.

What is with all this “neo” stuff? Does this guy abide by some genuinely novel synthesis, or his he a plain, old Marxist?

We need a Constitutional amandment to outlaw all forms of socialism.

The establishment of a “‘journalism’ division of AmeriCorps” to “ensure that young people who love journalism will stay in the field”

Not a coincidence that Gov't awards $234 million in AmeriCorps expansion.
