I have a better idea...

Let’s take over the media.

No, not by force. By presenting an alternative that can get rid of the powerful media companies and delegates power to the people. Let the people decide who gets hired and who survives. Let the reporters and the columnists and the opinion writers have to please the people. Divorce them from the large media conglomerates and from the powerful publishers.

It can be done.

There is a way.

We can do it. It does

That last sentence should read:

We can do it. It doesn’t have to be complicated.

The easy part is creating the concept of an alternative. The problem is funding it.

My brilliant idea is creating a website called “Questions unasked” that thake the main articles of propaganda fed us by the MSM daily and giving voice to the questions the MSM SHOULD have asked, but didn’t.

Now that’s simple, informative, thought provoking...and utterly useless without financial backing to push it to ‘mainstream’ prominance. Then there’s developing a business model that would be able to function without relying on advertizing (that the libs can use as ‘pressure’ to kill it.

So even if you only had a staff of a few people, it’s still a 7 figure endeavor per year to promote it.

Then you have to promote it a lot to force it into the ‘mainstream’ of the net consciousness...

This and a thousand brilliant ideas of circumventing the MSM lack one thing. A Right Wing George Soros to fund them just like the media matters type groups.

Sucks, but that’s reality.
