Man, doesn't this picture just say it all about our media?

With the face of Rep. Tom DeLay pasted over a photo of Napoleon, Chris Levack talks
with the media outside an Austin, Texas courthouse Friday, Oct. 21, 2005, where

One lone dopey protestor, and an absolute mob of media knobs clamoring to broadcast his lame message all over the world.

If you go to protest a Democrat, you could light you hair on fire and they still won't take your picture.

It's true. I've tried it. Not one picture. Bastards.

Yup. An unbiased MSM would be climbing over each other to interview the LtCol that outed Able Danger.

LOL! Or a former one. There's a few of them with some time on their hands.

That's because they're all about trying to shape the news to reflect their own world view and wishes. They stopped being about truth a long long time ago.

The only way to clean them up is to stop buying their rags or watching their programs. Turn them off and tune out. Money talks.

I strongly agree the MSM is biased but I cannot for the life of me figure out why other than blind, mass adherence to failed ideologies. I mean, from the ratings bonanza that Conservative and Middle of the Road programming enjoys over biased coverage you would think that, in the absence of a complete self death wish by everyone in the MSM, common sense, good business judgment and self preservation would prevail.What am I missing here?

"What am I missing here?"

Shared Values. You'll find it in Fire Departments, Military victor units, etc. For journalists, its a need to "change the world for the better" thru agenda -driven reporting.

We need to seriously think of a way to being a broadcast. How do we get on TV or Cable?

What's funny is that these idiots don't even seem to know that they are doing serious damage to Earles "case".
