On the Media... [View all]

[nadinbrzezinski]

Well OWS should have woken most of us as to how truly CONSERVATIVE the media is. Tea Party shows up with more porta potties than protesters, and even more media...they are there. In fact, it is a very positive coverage.

OWS is uggly and dirty and using the wrong tactics and have no support...never mind they have changed the conversation in radical ways. There is more, if these guys and gals were doing this in Arabic or Farsi they'd be heroes.

So if this does not break this in, pretty much nothing will.

But from now on, I do not watch MSM. That's not the right use of language. When I turn on msnbc for example, I am watching either conservative or elite media. Either is correct. MSM is their frame...no, it's not mainstream, it is conservative and concerned for elite values. In-fact, salaries for talking heads are also elite and conservative.

I invite you to start thinking about these issues beyond the surface, oh and I include NPR in this.
