5. Keith Olbermann just barely mentioned DK's call for
impeachment but even he quickly buried it with full coverage of the "UFO segment". Everyone in the MSM news is guilty of what Jon Stewart described in his brilliant appearance on "Crossfire" and what Al Gore describes in great detail in "Assault on Reason". Real public discussion of real issues is nearly dead in America and our media, particularly television, is mostly to blame.

A candidate for the Democratic nomination for president stood on a stage during a nationally televised debate and called for the impeachment of the current president and vice president of the United States for starting and maintaining a criminal war with a criminally deceitful propaganda campaign...and nobody in the media said a goddamn word about it. Total blackout.

But from every outlet for sometimes days or even weeks on end, we heard all about Edward's haircuts, Obama's lapel pin (or not), Kucinich's UFO, Clinton's laugh...

I fear for the kids growing up right now. This MSM is all they have ever known. I am old enough to remember when news still incorporated a now little known concept called journalism (I think they even used to teach it in school)with a dash of integrity thrown in.
