    The media is crap, it's all about ratings. When was the last time they did a story on anything good. If it bleeds it leads.

      What a lame over-generalization of things.

      A total crock.

      Perhaps you're not watching, listening, and reading enough to get a good mix. There's plenty of "good" media stories, if you're not too lazy to look past the "Blonde White Woman Missing in Aruba" shite.

      But then it's much easier to just say it's crap, isn't it?

      Oh, and then throw in a lame cliche.

            No, actually it's a running joke from the old Pasture Dump board at the "official" Van Halen website.

            There was this character there named "Fernando", and about 85% of his posts were nothing but a question mark.

            The other 15% were short responses like "patience", "Si senor" and "Van Halen is Van Halen".

            Somehow this guy developed a cult following among the sheep, half of whom were convinced that the guy was either Alex or Bassplayer.

                    Try reading a local newspaper instead of getting your War news sandwiched between stories about puppies and babies...

                    In any case, this is an indicator of nothing. Bush is the Executive branch, and he still sets the foreign policy agenda your delusions aside. The only way for Congress to shut down the War is to cut off funding, and they're unwilling to do that --yet...

                      It wasn't recently on the "top-of-the-hour" or on the "front page" much before the elections either...

                        Truth is that the media isn't really "conservative" and it damn sure isn't "liberal" but is in reality CORPORATIST.

                        However, the nature of corporatism itself is extremely right wing. As Benito Mussolini himself once said, "fascism is better called corporatism" as it is the merging of state power with that of the corporations. And the BCE has done that "merging" better than anyone.

                        But the DLC (who pose as Democrats) are nearly as bad, which is why James Carville, Rahm Immoral, Hillary Clinton and the like get favorable coverage from the whore media while true Democrats such as Howard Dean or Dennis Kucinich usually do not. Nor do conservatives who oppose the BCE and/or the corporatist agenda.

                          The democratic politicians always want the republicans to fail and the republican politicians always want the democrats to fail. How can this ever be any good for the country? They are all a bunch of wining cry babies, crooks and liars. ALL OF THEM!!!!!

                              Perhaps I shouldn't have to sift through the shit to get some good news. When was the last time you heard anything optimistic from the media. Not all the world thrives on bad news.
