Unless you're talking about right wing Media, those videos probably would be posted at DU. Since I don't watch cable news I rely on video clips to see the interesting stuff at DU and from the politically active folks I follow on Twitter. If mainstream Media is behaving this way we need to call them out. Your rant is righteous but not actionable without some examples.
