OK as far as it goes. But I’m thinking it has to go deeper than that. Media Matters *in and of itself* has no real power. I’m thinking more of a mafia shakedown sort of deal where someone from govt. says, in effect, “Nice business ya got here”.
Actually I think you are wrong. Media Matters is the shakedown arm of the administration. Do a search for the Rally for Rush threads here on FR or on American Spectator.
Their media PR guy is the same one the managed the StopBeck campaign. He was just laying in wait for Rush to ‘step in it.’
Carbonite: OK. Now we’ll talk Carbonite. And about Mr. McLaughlin of Sleep Number. And two of the co-founders of Legal Zoom.

Start at about page 5. If you haven’t seen this your in for a surprise. It is also why I did raise question about Rush, as he admitted on his show last Monday...to knowing the “leanings” of these companies.
