The liberal media is only as liberal as the conservative corporations that own it.

Yes, I remember there was hardly any coverage of the anti-war marches, and those who did report, gave gross misrepresentations of the numbers of protesters.

The media is such a huge, huge part of our problem! "Fair & balanced" is the biggest pile of journalistic bullshit I've ever heard & now it's mainstream & most American's think that's what a news station should be.

The 'for-profit' model corrupts every public institution. There is a reason why somethings are not for profit.
