Reply #14: move to strike as non-responsive

[OnTheOtherHand]

You seem to have entirely ignored the actual content of my post and responded to some fantasized alternative post in which some imaginary adversary wrote that 'exit polls should be ignored.' Charitably, that seems careless.

If you think that independent exit polls should be a priority in 2006, then you need to make the argument. Animated retching will not suffice. If you can't justify your strategic recommendations, then they should be ignored.

And I think that portraying the exit poll/election return coverage as evidence of war-profiteering corporate media hostility dangerously warps your political analysis. Election integrity faces enough obstacles without inventing enemies.

Hey, another chance to respond to the content of my previous post: if the corporate media intended to cover up the exit poll results, why did they post them on heavily trafficked news sites first? And in what sense did they "shut down the election reporting system"?

If folks want to believe that everything you say is true because it makes them feel good, that is their prerogative. But let the record reflect whether you can answer simple questions. If not, why not stick to the points you can actually support?
