I Have Now 100% Given up on the Media
The MSM is Dead to me.

Real Journos are stuck doing Internet blogs and are telling the truth about Iraq, and Voter Fraud, and the MSM just shuts up and says nothing.

Now the MSM have come up with this hard hitting story, and that does it for me,IM THROUGH with them , the new headline for the MSM today is....

"IS PARIS HILTON TOO PRETTY FOR PRISON"

2. Good for you.
I can get anyone to lie to me or babble about inane shit for hours, and I don't have to watch commercials throughout.

3. I just wonder what took you so long. I don't even watch national news
but the local news is now national news. They carry the same tripe. The other night, I caught a short part of a story while channel surfing: it was about a traffic jam on the east coast. I am in the midwest. That is not news. Another local story I heard on the radio while driving was about some college girls who stole campus newspapers because they thought they looked too fat in a cover photo of them at a game.

4. The bad part about this
is this. These so called members of the MSM are Americans. They are not foreigners or illegal aliens who are not supposed to LOVE AMERICA.

What are they gaining by bypassing information that the public should know and printing and spewing tripe instead. I can't understand them. We know that this country stood idly by and let the republican owned corporations buy up the media. So they could give us the news and directions they wanted us to hear and see. And remember they are also American citizens, what are they gaining by ruining this country.

When the middle class disappears, when there is no longer anyone to do the really important duties that we really need to be done, they will crumble right along with the rest of the country. Does that almighty dollar that they are grabbing in the moment, mean so much they must destroy this country in the process.
