Yesterday was a fascinating study in the power and potential of the "new media"- an alliance of the web and talk radio...
I read most of the stories here on Free Republic and logged off to take my wife to work. As we were driving in, the callers to talk radio started coming up, and relaying information, stories, and refutations to "The President Knew!" that had to have come off the web.
By lunchtime, the flow had picked up drastically, and callers were showing more & more indignation- at the clinton's corrupt reign, at the media, and at the spin being peddled.
By late afternoon, the flow became a torrent of righteous anger and indignation.
It was a wonderful thing to behold, and you have to wonder that had it existed 10 years ago, a lot of really bad stuff would have died a-borning...
What's apparent- and really worrisome- about this newest dustup is the Left's contempt for, and wish to silence, any opposing opinions.
