Why is mass media ignoring story about 'smoking-gun' memo?

Our mass media have become nothing more than highly paid propaganda agencies of our government.

Instead of telling us the truth, our mass media collaborate with our government to hide the truth.

2. I assume you're refering to TV media here...
After all, every major paper in the country has run this story. The Chicago Tribune, a paper that recommended Bush in both the 2000 and 2004 elections, ran the mem story on page 1 above the fold.

As for TV media, the first poster is right. There were runaway brides to consider.
