Liberal news media does not cover protests! What?
We are all friends here, right? We all know the media is not, or ever
been liberal. However, the majority of Americans think if they watch
a half hour every night on major network national news. that they
informed about current events. Yeah right!
Last night I forced myself to watch network news. I went to CBS,
NBC and ABC, the big 3. The first 6 minutes was the feeding frenzy of
the sex scandal of Mark Foley. Americans love sex scandals, may it be
Michael Jackson, Bill Clinton or a Blonde female teacher getting it
on with a 14 year old student. Most Americans have a mundane life and
this stuff perks them up like a cheap cup of coffee. After they
reported that story, it was for time product placements. NBC was
reporting about a new of line cars. They would, they are owned by
General Electric and they supply the auto industry with the
electrical devices. ABC was reporting about a new movie about Cats.
Oddly enough, the movie was made by the same company that owns ABC,
Disney! CBS had a barrage of puff pieces. However, million of
American took the day off from work and school to protest this
stinking war. But the CORPORATE news media didn't find that news
worthy!
The print media didn't fair well either, THE L.A Times just printed
a photo buried on page 2 in the local section.
The left wing media did cover it, Free Speech T.V, Pacifica radio
and Air America. It was covered on the net: Indy media for example.
Now this is the killer, they are not even covering the mortality
rate in Iraq anymore. 15 soldiers got killed yesterday and not even a
peep about it.
So it is official, the mainstream media has been nationalized by
the Bush crime family.
We should keep protesting everyday of the week until the Neo-Con
regime is fallen

2. Uh.... WHAT "Liberal Media"?
That is now nothing but a figment of the Right Wing's imagination.

There is no such thing. Anymore. Anywhere.
