in your parents day it was the place to turn to for information.

Toto, this is not your parent's news outlet anymore.

As for you closing comment ... there are lots of 'otherwise intelligent people' who are swayed by the MSM!"

I say BULLSHNIT! If they get their information from the MSM they are not intelligent!

Now is the time to strike. The MSM is in the crapper, and they believe that if they keep the propaganda up they will eventually return to profitability. I believe it is a good time for a media raid of sorts. A few powerful Conservatives (RUSH) could step in and take over, or create a new network, and or newspaper. No doubt it would be a success. People are hungry for unbiased news.

” For instance, both predicted that McCain would bring up Obama’s ties to ex-terrorist William Ayers. “

Anyone remember the Obama campaign’s response when it finally WAS brought up? They tied McCain to the Keating Five. That strategy lasted about a day.

You can be intelligent but still be a fool.

I work with several intelligent physicians whom I consider to be fools, as it applies to “buying” liberal ideology.

“Republican’s first strategy should be taking over the MSM. Without it we are doomed”

You want to send the MSM down the tubes? Pull the plug.

Don’t pay a dime for television. No satellite, no cable, no digital, none of it.

Don’t subscribe to Time-Lies-Warner-Turner-CNN magazines.

Don’t subscribe to your daily newspaper.

DEFUND THE LEFT.

Newspapers are already looking for a federal bailout.

Let the old media die. It just served to work in collusion with the DNC on the daily agenda.

“Culture of corruption” was a DNC talking point and the media SAT on the Mark Foley story until October and then CLAIMED that the GOP “knew and did nothing”. It was a talking point designed to turn off the conservative base, paint Mark Foley as a child molester, and win Congress for Pelosi-Reid.

It’s all about swaying the public opinion through a steady diet of propaganda.

Don’t give them a DIME of your money.

Can’t boycott the Times any more than I do now. I don’t even click on links.

My eyes have been opened, but there are lots of otherwise intelligent people who are swayed by the MSM.

And there are professors at Harvard who've fallen for the Nigerian banking scam.

How many gulible Americans willingly voted for congressman with the most liberal record (to the left of Bernie Sanders - Independent Socialist)? They believed him when he ran to the middle in the campaign.

If you don't watch the nightly news, you are uninformed.

If you blindly watch the nightly news, you are misinformed.

Your tagline is flawed:

The MSM has created its own doom.

It does have a good crossword though.

Except the last two Sunday's, which my local paper reprints, have been Obama love fests.

This N.Y.T. is in line and waiting for their Obama bail-out.
They're bankrupt, not only factually but also literally.
Democrats can not let this paper fall into the wrong hands.

Sorry, I forgot to post this: http://boycottnyt.com/take-action

That page has ideas about more ways to take action against the NYT, even if you’re already avoiding the print and online editions. Hope this helps!

Pitchforks and torches outside SeeBS HQ?

it will take a long time and next to impossible to infiltrate the MSM by working from the inside. Perhaps violent overthrow of the studios is needed.

Now I am with you. You are talking about intelligent people, not people with common sense. You mean intelligent in the educated book sense. Academic Dumbshnits! Yeah, those types just handed Bernie Madoff $50 Billion. Intelligent Idiots!

I can’t believe there are 50 some posts here and not one picture of the lovely Ann Coulter. Rules are rules for a reason!

10-4! The common sense gene is quickly, but surely, evolving out of our society.

Still, it never ceases to amaze me that some otherwise very smart people can be so blind to the things that seem only natural to you and I.

An executive I work with quizzed me on my views about the election, and I TOLD him. His response was along the lines of, “You seem to be a pretty intelligent person.....except for your conservative views.” I explained to him that I actually had quite a liberal bent when I was a younger lad.......but then I grew up.

He didn’t even realize that he’d been insulted!
