The colleges teach "activist journalism" from textbooks. They make, break, and coerce these Bolsheviks from the first day of class. None of us would be able to stand the coercion, the bias, the worldview, and the obnoxiousness of the assignments, the books, and the professors. Only a true believing left wing fascist can emerge from the journalism programs.

Oh so true and that includes the so called Sports Journalists who are as liberal as the rest

And that is why when you see Conservative Editorial writers sydicated columnists etc etc they come from a different background and are NOT College Journalism Majors

I keep thinking about the invention of the printing press -- remember how in school we all learned what an important event that was? One of the changes it created in the society of the time was to make the Bible accessible to everyone so they could read it for themselves. And THAT led to the rise of the reformists and Protestant denominations.

In several hundred years, will history point to the rise of weblogs as the same kind of turning point because the MSM is no longer the only conduit between the people and interpreter of events?
