That Molly Ivins is a liberal is a factor considering this is the new Demo/liberal talking point.
If you mean concentration of media owenership is potentially dangerous and offers cookie cut-out radio, I can agree with you.
If you think such concentration is what Ivins thinks, that this is a plot to shove "right wing" (just count how many times that phrase is used in the article) ideology on some unsuspecting listeners without any diffferent choices, I suggest you find another site.
No, Bunky, but one side does seem to have a monoply on lying. Ivins is simply carrying water again for whining Democrat like Daschle and Hillary! who are disturbed by the fact that their party's own monoply has finally given way to diversity of opinion.
The scumbags controlled the House for 40 years before one lone voice in the wilderness began to give people hope and truth. Ivins is just sweating like a pig because her party's lies are so quickly and roundly exposed in the modern media. No longer are people captive dinnertime audiences to the only news they could find - - Jennings, Brokaw, and Rather. Do you remember, "More people get their news from ABC News than from any other news source"? (Shudder.)
Now, in 2003, there are options. This drives her and her ilk nuts.
