“we’re not producing as much news as we did five years, 10 years, 15 years ago and we have to reverse that trend or I think we are going to be pretty close to denying our citizens the essential news and information that they need to have in order to make intelligent decisions about the future direction of their country.”
This says to me that he is admitting just how biased the media has become, and just how utterly in the tank whole hog the media was for Obama in the elections. That right there IS a trend that has to be reversed, otherwise the media will literally be nothing other than a democrat party mouthpiece. That is all it is right now. It needs to change, that’s for sure.
Knowing this guy's history, I don't think that's how he means it. I think he means...
- "The only reason the Dems lost the mid-term elections is because the people are stupid, and the reason the people are stupid is because of Fox News Channel. We have to shut them down and make sure only "real" news gets reported to the great unwashed masses."
That's what he means.
