It was Breitbart who said we wouldn't be able to ultimately win without retaking the culture in the media, in Hollywood, and the the Universities. IF we can take out the current Marxist stain, maybe they'll start to implode. Let's hope so, without taking these three down, we will remain in huge trouble. This article may be a bit Eeyorish in implying that it's too late. I prefer what Rush says: it's time to get more determined and take them out.

Thankfully we have conservative talkradio, Foxnews, and the internet to counterbalance.

For it to be true that the media is truly in control of our destiny would require evidence that they have actually retained their once-powerful ability to persuade-that their credibility remains intact, in this day and time.

At least in recent times, there’s some evidence that the liberal media has little sway on elections.

The establishment media, the liberal education establishment and Hollywood shilled for each and every Democrat candidate in municipal, state, congressional, and gubernatorial elections in the run-up to the 2010 mid-terms. Did they really have an effect? The bottom line is that the electorate simply ignored them, went to the polls and handed the media-endorsed candidates a monumental defeat. Across the land. Is this not evidence that the vaunted media has perhaps lost its mojo?

The Wisconsin recall is another case in point.

Media credibility has perhaps not been lost, but clearly has been damaged. More importantly, we can now see that the lib media has come to care not a whit about credibility going forward. They are betting the farm on their relevance, and may lose that bet.

For many Americans there’s a feeling that they were sold a bill of goods in Barack Obama. Evidence? See above. With them, I believe the media is getting more and more of the blame. Nightly reports are being viewed now with a skepticism never before seen. More evidence? The massive switch of independent voters from Obama to Romney.

Polling firms have the same overwhelming need for relevance at the expense of credibility that the lib media do. To remain relevant, they must do the bidding of the liberal media.

If we continue to pay more heed to the seeds the media plants, instead of the crops they reap, then we will be in a constant state of demoralization.

Be not fooled by the superficial impression that the eunuchs run the harem.

Yep. When a President is ASKING companies to violate the law to enhance his re-election chances and the media doesn’t even think that is newsworthy they have become beneath contempt.

I think THAT is what Romney needs to do- ATTACK THE MEDIA WHORENALISTS posing as the debate moderators.

He can get a standing ovation out of the crowd, I bet

The media are already imploding. 10 years ago combined viewership of the 3 news networks was 30 million. Now it is less than 8 million while Drudge is over 30 million per day.

As Limbaugh says, no one believes the media anymore. They are just reporting to impress their colleagues. Look at how the alternative media turned the skewed polls around and forced the media to report more accurately. The internet has become a great equalizer. There are hundreds of millions of us and a few hundred thousand of them. Our numbers will make them irrelevant.

The media is are already falling apart. Going into these debates if they treat Romney unfairly the alternative media will create that narrative. Most everyone does not like to be lied to and scammed. The media are pegged as scam artists already. The tied is already turning.

FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL. IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY.

They may love Obama, but it's really about the money.

These "journolists" accept bribes from the Soros types.

Anyone out there, who can access the money trail, that's what we need. Evidence of corruption. We know it's there, all we have to do is find it.

Once we do that, we can fundamentally sue them for malpractice and fraud.

You need to defund the left...cancel cable, turn your back on entertainment, such as music, sports, and such. Homeschool your children. As long as you continue to lend your financial support to these enterprises; nothing will change. Nothing.
