Jon Stewart can be so funny and clever. I wonder if he could ever be an Evan Sayet. Since he shows a lot of common sense at times, maybe he will figure out that the fascists are trying to destroy America, and obama and the whole democrat party are Marxists now. Maybe, he just doesn’t understand the insidious evil, terror, and slavery of Marxism. We need people in the media that tell the truth and I’ve seen him do it a few times.

Lotta people here hate on Stewart and Colbert, but I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, there’s a damn good reason most of us under 30 watch him every night.

And this is just another example as to why.

I cringed writing it. I should not have mentioned it. One has to wonder how Obama came to be and how Ron Paul is to be avoid by the media at all cost.

Sad, funny and true all at the same time.

We are just sheep to the corporate media and the elites.

The media is loathe to even mention Bachmann and are trying to convince us that Romney and Perry Inc. should be our new masters. The world is one scary, messed up place.

Yes. One MORE example of manipulation. Rush has been doing montages for 20+ years that prove this point as well.

When you think of it, ‘medium being the massage’ has been known for a long time.

Remember Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?
Meet John Doe?

Just two examples which portrayed media manipulation as a prominent feature in the storyline...

Now, for how to manipulate the manipulators, see here:

Many people still watch a lot of television, supine both mentally and physically. If their minds were houses, any drifter could walk in off the street and take up residency.

Conservatives trying to “get their message out” via this media establishment would be comparable to Eisenhower trying to pander to Berlin Betty to “get his message out” about liberating Europe.
