2. ...and what makes you think our media is any better?

...at least you know what slant they're coming from. And in my view, corporate-owned media is even more insidious, as evidenced by:

1. The continued presence and dominance of animals like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, and their ilk;
2. The continued success and operation of Foxy News and wannabes at CNN;
3. The near-death of Progressive Talk Radio;
4. The absence of any legitimate "leftward" presence on the Sunday Talking Head TV Parade;
5. The irrelevance of most of the stories passed off as "news" on all forms of television;
6. The absolute CRAP that passes for entertainment, on all forms of electronic media.

One would have to be a complete IDIOT to take anything said by any media outlet as Gospel. You bring your salt shaker - I certainly do with RT, as I would with Al Jazeera or any other foreign-owned outlet with governmental support. Not to mention places like Democracy Now (whom I respect).

But I bring an entire Morton Salt Can with me when I watch CNN, MSNBS, or Foxy News. Or anybody else owned by corporate entities in this country. They all have agendas, and they have ads to sell. And they have advertisers who they dare NOT offend.
