With Hopes of Coining a New Term
Because I consider radical right wing radio, punditry, and printed propaganda more harmful and dangerous to America because of it's hatred (perverted patriotism) directed towards their own fellow Americans (of all races and nationalities) as much or even more so as towards their Islamic extremist counterparts, in the future I will only be addressing them as "The Maddrassa Media".

3. Not to pick on you, but...
the most common spelling seems to be Madrassa. I mention it because I had to look it up to see what you meant, and "maddrassa" is very uncommon.

And also, it should be "its" up above - that I mention because it's my pet peeve ;-)

6. The additional D was intentional
to distinquish the word from Madrassa due to the fact that I don't know for sure if all Madrassas' are houses of relegious hate, even though it seems to be considered as such by public opinion. I should emphasis that as "MADD-rassa" with regard to the madness of the right wing media.

4. Wrote a jingle for your new term. (know the old song Maria?)
Madrassa,
Let's call Corporate Media:
Madrassa!

It only has one view
America to screw
...to hell.

Madrassa,
Absuridities
Treated as reason
It spews lies
and then calls the truth:
treason

Madrassa
We must ex-pose
Brain washing
Madrassa

Madrassa

MA-DRASS-A!

5. Yep, my favorite song from West Side Story
Imagine Rush Limbaugh as Officer Krumpke.
