Gosh I hate to be a bore. Here goes. I remember when newspapers and news sources used to exist to serve and inform. Now froth has replaced hard news. And the media have no duty to readers. I also remember when Reagan dropped kicked the fairness doctrine into the toilet along with Clinton and his telecommunications act. Now reporters follow one bottom law, the law of corporate financial and political success. And these same corporate reporters report very little of consequence. And still they delude themselves that they serve some higher purpose. Reporters now check the stock market to see the newspapers financial health. Meaning their own. They serve only themselves. Doran being hired after her real talent for doing nothing, puts paid to the thought this organization could be legitimate.

Like the movie says. “What we have here is a failure to communicate.” What the media communicates relates more to dumbing down, trivia, and a frustrating lack of journalistic objectivity. Self serving, lazy corporate neocons. Don’t let anyone tell you we have a free press, or a liberal press.

The term liberal was made dirty by Reagan. And the Republicans confiscated the word along with everything else. Now the media is accused of being liberal. But ONLY if they write something that deviates even slightly from the right wing talk. I don’t know why they worry about an occasional lapse into some truth. It doesn’t happen often.

i hear she and Kathrine Harris are vying for McCains vice president slot.

The FNS customer base, which was originally composed of a small number of news media companies, now includes most major U.S. and foreign newspapers and news services, world-wide broadcast media, U.S. government agencies, foreign embassies, U.S. embassies worldwide, corporations, lobbyists, universities and associations.

If we have not begun impeachment by the end of Bush’s term, we will see a flood of blanket pardons as excessive as any of the manifold excesses of the past 8 years.

If you’re crooked and looking to fudge, commit graft and undermine established rules, which pool offers you the wider selection of ‘qualified’ individuals over whom you can hold leverage and thieve to your bank account’s content? If you populate a government with as many of those mediocre idioti as you can bribe, blackmail and extort, they begin to look like the norm and not the exception that the founders were angling for with their bit of declarative rights-making.

Just look at how most corporations “work;” whistleblowers, however correct and supportive of the defined company objectives that their cases are, are always ostracized for their loyalty to the corporation’s stated policies. The honesty of the whistleblower is always regarded as less valuable than the ability of the mediocre, grasping stooge to see the *wink* between the lines of the corporate “credo.”

Damnit, I PAID for those cookies myself!’

Leave it to the morons to find the oxy. If it doesn’t work it is not “leadership” by definition. If there is no leadership it is due to the ineffective and/or incompetent fool professing to be a leader which is typical in all of bushco and the bushco obsequious sycophants.

And this seems to be a pattern. You refuse to take any personal responsibilities, and you attack others for doing their jobs.
