jpwright said:Sad but true. I occasionally watch FOX at primetime just to laugh at it and yell at Bill O'Reilly a bunch.

Theres a 1hr documentary about it floating around online called "The Myth of the Liberal Media" and it is fascinating. "The Corporation" or at least the 2nd hour of it also contains some relevant information. If you just want a quick laugh at O Reilly's expense the Outfoxed is always good for a laugh.
freethought6t9 said:"Orwell Rolls in his Grave" is another superb documentary on the corporate media. Micheal Powell being dragged in front of the senate is simply awesome. I'm busy downloading manufacturing consent, will check the book out, thanks.

Kind of sucks , huh?:smile: Those glory days are now over!

When roughly 78% of all national newspeople interviewed as they have been in the past;.. admit to have liberal leanings in their politics, it is NO phantom!
The blind might be blind, ..but they are not also deaf. Its easy to see, hear, & how the news is presented, & it sure as hell ain't independent.
Kind of reaks of "internationalist" flair. Gee, it just must be co-incidental, huh?

Lets see how is the message reported: Bush is evil, Bush is racist, Bush lied, America is evil, Bush, Cheney & Halliburton, Bush stole election, Bush owns Diebold voting machines, Christians are evil, Sympathy for terrorists, justification for Terrorists, America uses torture??
On & on, ..& Al jazeera has nothing on them!
