Reply #7: Unless the M-E-D-I-A starts doing it's job it isn't too promising

I'm not American so you might not agree with my perception...But sitting here in Canada watching all that's going on in the U.S.A., I am amazed. EVEN THE LATEST revelations about the connection of Cheney et al to the power company in Ohio responsible for the recent blackout...along with all the other revelations about the phony reasons for going to war (WMD's, uranium from Niger etc.).....are just sort of tossed off as not important....The media has abandoned it's responsibility and gives Bush and company a pass on everything....I think Bush would have to commit murder, live on TV before they would be negative about him.....Is it because the networks are controlled by companies that don't want to rock the boat????....I watched as President Clinton, who is intelligent, informed, well liked by the world, was reviled daily by Republican politicians and media people alike because he HAD ILLICIT SEX!!!...And the way the media jumped on Al Gore; also intelligent and well informed about the rest of the world....It seems to me that the American people will never get the true picture of George Bush and company unless they start seeing it daily on TV....Don't the media CARE what happens to their country? .
