(39,451 posts)some kind of a ping-pong match. This side did this, the other side did that.
When will it be over? Gore could still win IF. Bush will win IF..... blah blah blah.
I was so angry. Where was the in-depth reporting? What the hell was really going on??
Same thing in 2004 when I was watching Dan Rather reporting the election results and suddenly - out of NOWHERE the numbers jumped from Kerry to Bush.
The silence from the media was deafening.
And one day I watched this large man on MSNBC named Keith Olbermann say on the airwaves that the election in 2004 was stolen and here is why. I almost jumped out of my skin from excitement.
Then Dan Rather got fired for reporting the truth about Bush.
And then the corporate media got to Keith.
I find myself watching FSTV more and more and more. It's not only Amy Goodman and Hartmann but they also have news on from France and I find out more about what is really going on in the world - including the US - vs hearing the same stories over and over again every hour and hearing rw wacko talking points making their way to the other networks as news.
