BP, This is the crux of the problem, the MSM is beholden to the left and the Democrapic Party. The days of the "objective" reporter are far behind us now. When a media outfit like Fox attempts to show both sides and present the actual facts in a story, they get shouted down by the loonies on the left saying that Fox is showing "bias" towards the right. Rupert Murdoch is vilified in the MSM for having the intestinal fortitude to still try to give people the facts, not biased opinions. I wonder how these solons of our new world media would like living in a country run by one of their heroes like Hugo Chavez or their old buddy Fidel?

BP,

I wonder how these solons of our new world media would like living in a country run by one of their heroes like Hugo Chavez or their old buddy Fidel? Some how I don’t think they’d like those gentlemen’s version of Freedom of Speech.

Where is the conservative movement? We should be screaming bloody murder! Seventy years ago, this was a huge issue during the FDR years -- GE was forced to dislodge NBC from its family of companies. I also don't understand why nobody's making an issue or at least investigating the role of Parsons, the former Nixon supporter who was CEO of Time Warner (owner of Time magazine, Warner Bros, and CNN!!!!!) then stepped down from the board of Time Warner in December 2008 and went to Citibank, which promptly got a huge bailout weeks after Pres. Obama took office. GE, remeber, stands to make billions from cap and trade because all the new regulations will favor "electric" energy over fossil fuels. Lastly, I want conservatives to look into Facebook. The founder of Facebook took a prestigious job in the Obama campaign in 2008. Then when Obama went to Germany, a major legal conflict between Facebook and German law was unfolding. I thought, at the time, I was paranoid to wonder about a link. But now we have to question everything. It's not a question of entertaining rumors or starting urban legends. This is not en par with going crazy over a birth certificate... These are serious legitimate questions about the ethics of media companies, and there is a long history in the US of debating, sometimes fiercely, how to intervene when the people who control our information are also financially tied to one party in government. This is an egregious case of propaganda and financial collusion. In the old days it was JP Morgan and folks of his ilk who were sleazy, now it's media people and liberal Manhattan dwellers.
