As for the masses, like I said, if they take the time to listen, watch or read the editorials, then they will realized by themselves there's a bias ...

I understand what you're saying about them being clueless ... but maybe you underestimate a bit the masses ... people are not so idiots. And usely they have their own logic and views on this ... which can be different from yours or mine ...

And they can also choose to believe all that crap too!!
all i am saying is that the press has a duty to be as impartial as they can, and when stating opinion it should be clearly identified as such.

the press is clearly abusing it's power and it's trust.

I believe that he's VERY biased. However he still shows you the "truth" that other Stations don't, won't or are afraid to show.




I wonder what a "REAL" broadcast journalist would think. I'd love to hear Walter Cronkites take on how the news is delivered today. He probably can't even watch it anymore without getting completely repulsed.

Obama is planning a 30 minute commercial tomorrow and another two soon - Sorry I find that completely wrong, in UK the major parties have exactly the same air time, they spend most of their advertising money on billboards. So he's got at least 90 minutes more of biased coverage than McCain + the biased media (if I can believe what I read).

Actually it's only "one" thirty minute spot. It's going to air on three networks at the same time.

But yeah, I don't really understand it either. He hasn't said what he's going to talk about yet. Guess we'll see tomorow.

Obama has such a lead right now that he should probably bag this 30 minute infomercial. Why do anything differently than what has been working for you? Either that, or he should just use the time to VJ some old school Peter Gabriel videos. That would be sweet.

hence the inclusion of "seems to".

you linked many of his biased comments and presented them as facts so from my perspective that would "seem to" indicate that you thought his commentary had value beyond him just blathering on and on.

Yeah, yeah, yeah... Just keep turning a deaf ear to the truth, and buy into all the crap those "snake oil" salespeople(McCain/Palin) are peddling. I really don't care anymore. Your useless "rhetoric" has become tiresome and boring.
