Time to go after the corporations big time.
I watched the coverage of the new Hampshire voting today and was disturbed by the one thing I did not see or hear.....much of anything about John Edwards. They fawned over Hillary and, Barak, and Bill C, and McCain and the rest of the stooges but there was almost nothing about Edwards. It is because he had taken aim at the corporate media owners and this is their way of getting back? Look at what they did to Dennis Kucinich debate after debate. One question about nothing of great importance and then forget all about him. I would start a boycott of Disney, G.E. and every other corporation that owns one of the giants of American Media.
These people have to learn they may own a media company but they don't own us and we demand to hear from all the candidates, not just the front runners or the ones they personally prefer. I was waiting to hear from my guy, Edwards but hardly heard his name mentioned. Its time to put the corporations in their place. If want change as the candidates say we do, lets cause a little change of our own. Have you ever talked to one of media Mavens? They are no big freaking deal. They put their pants on one leg at a lime as we do after after peeing, they also dribble a few drops down their pant leg like every other man. They may get to use the executive washroom but they pee like everybody else.

1. The first thing that needs to be done is turn off the TV, or at the very
least, those channels that carry the punditry. Shun them or just blackball them. All the news that's fit to read is right here on the internet. Play music and read, turn Chris Matthews (most of all for me) OFF. If the ratings drop drastically, they will have to notice. Only turn on KO if you so desire, it will be noticed. I watched TCM all night tonight, no BP going up or aggravation. Good movie and latest on DU. The only way to go...
