 Blogs: Halting the march of the mainstream media  What is happening is that for the first time in decades, if not ever, the power of the mainstream media (MSM) in the United States is being seriously challenged by a mostly ragtag army of outsiders armed with little more than the internet. The age of the blogger is upon us.

 I think of it as a gestalt- the sum of the whole, together, is greater than the parts added separately.

Pajamhadeen would be a better word. Whoever coined "pajamahadeen" inserted an extra syllable.

[Molly Pitcher]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...

If I blog in the nude, am I out of uniform?

[PJ-Comix]

Here are the latest DUmmie FUnnies on the subject of Memogate. BTW, it is getting a lot harder now to mine these nuggest because even the DUmmies are embarrassed by this plus the deloooosional paranoia by many over there that it is all a KARL ROVE plot. Therefore there are currently far fewer posts on this topic. You can see my own comments enclosed in the [brackets].Oh, and I wear boxer truck underpants, NOT pajamas when I am posting even though I am a PJ.

The Republican talking points for the past day-and-a-half has been: Rather needs to be fired. Some couch it within the context of CBS's credibility, but the bottom line is the same. They want to end Rather's career. "Here's how we play hardball in Texas," etc. To do so would send a chill down the spin of any investigative reporter that came sniffing around the administration in the future. A clear attempt to quiet the so-called free press.

[Yet another rightwing plot to keep progressive reporters from using honest "forgery" to attack the fascists!!!]

I wish Rather would do a story on the kangaroo court he's being subjected to.

["This is Dan Rather reporting and tonight I am doing a special story about the rightwing cabal attacking me for merely using forged documents. COURAGE!"]

If firing a newsperson gives a news organization credibility ... Faux News would have to fire their entire organization.

[I say FIRE everybody at FOX News and replace them with experienced forgers!]

Rather will fight and win. Let them waste their time and energy. He is the top journalist and doesn't have to kiss anyone's ass.

[Dan already has your head up his ass.]

Look. Rather could clear all this up in five minutes. He could: 1) provide the original document and have it examined by a panel of neutral experts or 2) At least provide a generalized description of the source. ("Sources close to ____________") would suffice nicely. This method is used all the time to provide information without divulging the identify of the source, yet for some reason, CBS won't even do that.

[What? Do I detect a slight bit of rationality on this DUmmie Board? I say BAN this poster!!!]

Well, since Rather and CBS seem to be the last hold-out of "fair and balanced", it's no wonder that the conservatives are screaming for action. I STILL think that CBS was set up. And it smells like Rove to me.

[Absolutely! Karl Rove secretly flew to Austin, TX in an SR=71 spy plane. Then he faxed forged documents to CBS from the local Kinkos and flew back to Washington without anybody knowing he was gone. Devious. Sneaky. A typical ROVIAN plot!!!]

I wrote a letter of support to Dan Rather and recieved a nice responce from CBS: Thank you for taking the time to write. Your support is appreciated. As you can imagine, we've been inundated with negative emails. It's refreshing to hear from a viewer such as yourself. We strive for the highest level of journalistic integrity and will continue to do so, no matter what the cost. A free society demands free, unmuzzled media expression. Selena, CBS Evening News

["Thank you for taking the time to write. Your blind support is appreciated. As you can imagine we've been inundated with negative e-mails from rightwing fascists. It is refreshing to to hear from a clueless viewer such as yourself. We strive for the highest level of journalistic forgery and will continue to do so, no matter what the cost to our veracity. A free society demands free unmuzzled media forgery. Dan R.---SeeBS Evening News."]

Dan Rather knows who Karl Rove is. The biggest weakness with a person like Rove is that they always assume everyone else is an idiot. I wonder if Karl isn't the fly in the web this time, too.

[And Dan Rather probably knows that Karl Rove is the evil genius behind Global Warming. Our Danny Boy is on to all the devious Rovian plots. There's no fooling him!]

Rather is going to raise the ratings on 60MIN 11. And he couldn't find a better way as far as I am concerned.

[That was a genius idea of Rather to use forged documents to boost his ratings. Way to go, Dan!]

Maybe it's because I've watched a poker tournament, but I think Dan Rather is playing a little "Texas Hold 'Em" with everyone. In the face of all the controversy with the documents, he's been suspiciously calm. I don't believe he's dealt his trump cards yet. Either he CAN prove that the docs are genuine, or he can prove that someone tried to set him up. Or maybe he has additional evidence that will definitively seal Bush's fate.

[Or maybe he is waiting to prove that the Hitler Diaries are real or...or maybe Dan Rather is just waiting for you to pull your head out of his butt.]

John your at it again great post! the world should be reading this stuff not just us here of FR!! Bloggers arise it's time to take over the media...

[Repub4bush]

You peaked my curiosity, so I had to go wading over there for a while, and yes I have on very High hip boots over my PJ's.
Anyway, The mindset of these people is amazing. They sound like a bunch of Jr. high kids, very ill informed. Is this all the Rats have? I wonder what the grade level is of their top poster?
I bet we could forge a memo, full of misspellings and date 1900, about Bush and they would believe it! That is some strong Koolaid over there. (hint Koolaid pic needed to insert here) :)

[Veto!]

I'm a sweatsuit poster, myself. Sweatsuithadeen? Nah, I'll buy some pjs. Maybe we can get someone to make Freeper "Pajamahadeen" pjs to sell with the profits going to FR.

[WashingtonSource]

Pajamahadeen. Not a name I like. Sounds like terrorists in pajamas. I'd rather turn the tables against those who may have invented this term and call the main stream media the oldmediahadeen.

Good job!!! Please see my new tagline.

[Bob Mc]

"PAJAMAHADEEN!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely LOVE it!"

Actually I would not suggest we use words form ARAB language to make up new phrases for our new Pajama heros.

I would suggest something more American like PAJAMA POSSE!

[NeoCaveman]

Pajamahadeen. Not a name I like. Sounds like terrorists in pajamas.

Well it is either that or pajamanistas or the pajamarazzi.

[GeorgiaYankee]

Pajama people rule!
And "News" Anchors Drool!

[WashingtonSource]

I like pajamarazi. Sounds like vigilant, eager photographers who pursue the rich and famous. In our case, vigilant and eager bloggers who pursue the truth.

[tuesday afternoon]

Well what's this. I sent an e-mail supporting honesty and integrity in the MSM (sarcasm) and I didn't get a response. What's up with that?

[No_Doll_i]

I suggested the VRWPP (Vast Right Wing Pajama Party)

[Ladysmith]

Dittos that. I'm squirming everytime I see that.

Something more Cowboyish - more American! - would do these folks more honor.

Darn tootin'!

Time to try to take the country back. Or at least ensure that our voices are heard.

REALLY good!!! Ernest, thanks for the ping. Had you not pinged me, I would've missed this.

Everyone...go read that Hillary link. She hates us, not that we didn't already know it, but we've now become a bigger enemy.

Go forth. Read.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

fyi

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

It is so easy to miss good stuff....I bet i haven't read more than a tenth of the threads here.

Might want to ping some others.

[Southack]

You'll also find that Freeper Travis Mcgee busted the AP for using a fake SEAL in a recent bush-bashing story...

...That AmericaninTokyo busted the Howard Dean Campaign for illegal fundraising in Japan...

...That various FReepers busted the NY Times and other msm outlets for repeatedly using "Greg Packer" as their man on the street for quotes...

...That one FReeper in Africa gave us firsthand scoops on the supposed Kerry "bimbo eruption" after she fled over there to avoid the press...

...that FReepers on site at the recent Wisconsin rally for Bush managed to bust AP reporters Tom Hays and Lindlaw for lying about "boos" made after comments for well wishes to Clinton...

...That FReepers in California scooped the msm by 10 minutes because they *saw* the Shuttle start to break up before it came down in Texas...

CBS is merely the first King to be dethroned by Free Republic. There will be more.
