Any chance we'll have a media person refuse to catapault the RW propaganda,
like those anchors in Egypt? What are the chances that some media person points out the events in WI and says all is not well and that news is being made there?

2. We once did and they found themselves without jobs.

5. “In fact viewership of al Jazeera is going up in the United States because it’s real news…"
And in the Arab world? Al Jazeera is king, and Clinton says she can see why.

“Al Jazeera has been the leader in that are literally changing people’s minds and attitudes. And like it or hate it, it is really effective,” she said.

“In fact viewership of al Jazeera is going up in the United States because it’s real news. You may not agree with it, but you feel like you’re getting real news around the clock instead of a million commercials and, you know, arguments between talking heads and the kind of stuff that we do on our news which, you know, is not particularly informative to us, let alone foreigners,”


Hillary Clinton, as reported by ABC
