We have the most ignorant lazy and stupid media in the history of the U.S. They have no idea how to rport stories truthfully. If they wanted practice their craft honorably,

1) They would always include skerry's Senate testimony

2)They would always mention that the "high campaign official" was in fact a Prisoner of War for 6 years that VOLUNTEERED for the Bush campaign.

3) Demand that skerry release the OFFICIAL records, not some campaign screed.

To repeat, the media in the United States is pathetically, unprofessional and deserves the Stalin/Goebbels award for best propaganda organization in America

I think that they do know how to report objectively but that there is in their minds a "higher purpose" in promoting Kerry. Lately, I think that the media has started to believe that they are in a bad Disney movie.

4) The media should make Kerry answer: "When were you in Cambodia" and "What atrocities did you personally commit and what atrocities did you have personal knowledge about?"

If they [the media] wanted practice their craft honorably,...

After attaining my political maturity during the election of 1964, I no longer expect ANY noble behavior on the part of the American media, electronic or press. Subsequent elections have only confirmed this opinion. A reporter/journalist is an "Enemy of the People".

Anyone who doubts your words should only have a news story written about them. Many years ago I started a business which I initially ran from my home, the local newspaper happened to be running a series of articles on the subject of home based businesses and a reporter telephoned me and got my permission to do a story and he did a telephone interview. When the story came out in the paper I almost didn't recognize myself, my first name had been changed to something not even remotely close to mine and the facts which I had detailed to the reporter were so scrambled as to be unrecognizable, supposedly "verbatim" quotes did not even resemble what I had said. Soon after this the local TV station contacted me and said they wanted to do a video as they were also interested in home based businesses. I politely declined.
I have had minimal confidence in news media since this experience.
