Check out the Sunday Morning Talking Heads Thread here tomorrow... it's the ONLY way I can stomach getting what was said... and by who.

I disagree.

Nowhere in our Sacred Writings (Declaration of Independence & the Constitution) is it written or expected that the press be truthful or honest. The only control on a free press is exercised in the only place where it counts, and where these treasonous leftist bastards perpetually aim their whispers and dronings at.. in our minds.

Your last remarks are ably covered within the current pantheon of laws regarding espionage, aid and comfort to the enemy, and treason. All that is needed is the political will to pursue this.

It is We the People who are the best guarantor of freedom. Period.

I've had very little respect for the press since I was a young kid. I remember NBC starting fires in the gas tanks of GMC trucks and telling the people watching the *news* program that "trucks would blowup because of a design fault".

Great read jennivinson.

There's no real debate whether our Ministry of Information is tilted to the left; they are. cIc's point re competing media for much of our history is right on. The REAL question is, what happened to conservative media? And of course, why? And how..........

Well sir, although the founding fathers held the press in disdain- on that we agree,-- they saw it necessary to protect them. It may have been naive, but the press was meant to be free from partisan pressures so that the republic could ensure that one one created what they ran from-- A THRONE.

My point is that the Press helped create a democrat party throne and then siezed it for themselves!

I also concede that I have more to learn. I write editorials and bother to post them so that I can hear from folks like yourself. So thank you for the post.

Great article. Our problem is Gonzales should be fired. The RATS don't seem to have any problem using the system, what in the heck is wrong with this lame brain. I thought anyone could indite a ham sandwich. Even if no conviction, the hell it would cause and the exposing of the leakers would be a worth the effort.

Excellent, excellent read. All news media that participates in this espionage ought to have their dirty deeds exposed across the airwaves and any other source possible. Their treacherous behavior is causing the demise of America...

True. The press today in many respects is tame compared to the type of press in the early days of the U.S. . there is one difference, however (IMHO): there was a time when politics stopped at the water's edge. That line has been crossed, and Americans are now being killed or in danger of being killed because of the 'journalism' we're seeing today.
The unfortunate part is that this irresponsible activity will potentially invite the heavy hand of government. Perhaps, for the short term, a good thing. In the long term, no way.

Great piece! Get yourself on The O'Reilly Factor or Hannity and Colmes so more people can hear you!

Great article. I do not refer to them as the "elite media" though. Instead I call them what they are, the enemy, as in ENEMEDIA.

Take over the schools and libraries, take over the press, take over the judiciary and they are to third base. Be careful, America - don't let 'em steal home!

I played a lot of baseball in my life.

So, now you are right. They Communists/One-worlders are on third base with their control of the schools and nearly all opinion-forming apparatus in the country. They're taking an aggressive lead off third base down the third base line, and all they need is a suicide bunt or just a sacrifice fly to score the winning run. But the conservative pitcher has the ball and is ready to send a little 'heat' to the plate right under the batter's chin......... or right in his left ear.

I say take the Slimes to court. Keller and Pinch would have to testify and so would the reporters. The leakers in the bureaucracy must be exposed and someone needs prison.

As one

The problem is the naivete of the public which buys into the con that journalism is objective because journalism says it is objective..."------------

One more time.

Look back to whom was given the three television network licenses back when they were "offered".

Marxists are here, early on they figured out that they who control opinion-making WIN. They must be purged........... start with the New York Times, The Compost, and Time magazine.

Yes, but the left would then scream, "Look at the Bush administration persecuting the Press." I say let 'em scream.
