1. Its not main stream "news"...its main stream "media"...theres a difference
News indicates no bias or at least some level of fairness...media is just entertainment. CNN, FOX, MSNBC are MEDIA companies, not NEWS companies.

2. harpo
Is it ok with you that I attempt to share with a fellow liberal what I think is a good passionate commentary by an Air America talk show host?

3. Sure, go ahead...but it doesn't hurt to share terminology either so

don't take offense...I just want to be sure that everyone understands the difference between media and news. Based on your post about "news" it didn't appear you did so I was sharing :)

I am sorry if I am being a bit reactionary, its just that all too many times it seems that I always either get critiqued by my fellow liberals or (of course) shouted down by wing-nuts. Its just that sometimes I feel like Rodney Dangerfield -- "no respect I tell you".. :)

Anyway, no hard feelings and my apologies for reacting.. I just want to see this psychopath out of the White House like the rest of us decent folks. Personally I'd rather see him tried for crimes against humanity, but I'd settle for impeachment.

7. IT'S NOT MAINSTREAM ANYTHING!!! It's the Corporate Media.
Please don't validate these people's sick agenda of greed and manipulation.

10. I am innocent (the devil made me do it)
Honest, I swear on everything holy to us liberals. I used the term "main-stream" only in sarcasm.. :)
