While we’re all rejoicing at the demise of the liberal newspapers; I was thinking that with fewer outlets, the media will be easier for the Left to control.

I guess there might be a downside to this.

Especially if some in the media start getting Buyer’s Remorse about the Obama nightmare.

They can’t write about it if they are unemployed.

Blogs and bulletin boards will cover everything that needs telling. And better than “journalists.”

I’m willing to let 80+ years of liberalism go unchecked by the possibility of a few potential conservative-leaning articles.

DIE, Seattle PI.

That's the fallacy they have promoted - that there are multiple journalisms in America. There is room for only one.

Journalism as we know it is Associated Press journalism. The AP is a monopoly. Without the newswire, newspapers used to be competitive; with it, all newspapers claim that all journalists everywhere are "objective."
