We need to start going at the media for their part in this mess...
The media in this country is given its license to do what they do by a government agency the FCC.
If they cannot act in a manner that serves the public discourse we need to put pressure on our representatives to start pulling licenses.
They should not be able to just present outright lies as facts as they are doing in this health care debate.
You wonder why its hard to get our message out? Perhaps sending a screaming mob into some newsrooms at taping time would change there perception of what screaming mobs are actually all about.
