Environmental Media Association, a group that promotes the idea of incorporating environmentalist story lines into movies. At least they admit they use the entertainment media to push their views onto the masses.

You would think that somone smart enough to invent the internet (chuckle chuckle) would be smart enough to realize that he is only about 20 years late and his buddy Ted Turner already holds the copyrights, patents, and intellectual property rights to this concept ... not to mention considerable stock in the enterprise.

there already is a progressive radio network, it's called NPR

However, some liberals point to the success of Hillary Clinton's just-released memoir as evidence that a marketplace exists for their viewpoint. Since it's part of this article, can someone get us an update on just how well this book is actually succeeding? I haven't seen any updated numbers recently.

...a wealthy Chicago couple who have publicly announced plans to invest $10 million in a liberal radio network. What role Gore himself would play in any of these ventures is still far from clear. "He can pull out at any time," says one associate who has spoken to him about the concept. "He can say, 'This isn't my deal.' But he's interested."
Ten Million? You bet your sweet a$$ he's interested.

Man, these idiots don't get it, do they?
NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR YOUR OUTDATED, WHINEY, LEFTIST BULLSH!T!
Cripes, they already have NPR, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, every major motion picture company and studio, almost all of Hollywood's "playas", every single major newspaper across the country, Time, Newsweek, etc, and they are "worried"?
Liberals don't play well in the market unless it's a captive audience. Once Fox News and talk radio and the Internet broke the left's domination of all major media, people were given a choice and the PEOPLE CHOSE FOX NEWS CHANNEL AND TALK RADIO AND THE INTERNET, YOU MORONS!...what galls the Democrats and the left is they just can't believe the majority rejects them and their message. It's always got to be "some other reason" that they aren't "connecting"...when the idiots don't get that it is precisely because their message isn't connecting.
What's it gonna take to get it through to these morons?
MSNBC put on Donahue and he tanked so bad the ratings weren't even measurable some nights. And he's not some "leftist icon"? So where was this huge "progressive audience", eh? Nowhere to be seen.
Hightower, Cuomo, Koch, Dershowitz, etc, all tried and failed on talk radio.
Same reason.
When people are actually given a choice in media coverage, they will choose the conservative angle every time.
Al Franken will fail as miserably as every other leftist who has tried. Because the left listens to NPR...they already have a network...paid for by you and me and our tax dollars no less.
Again, advertisers don't support NPR...the left needs public funds to stay on the air...they can't compete in the market place of ideas...they LOSE EVERY TIME!.
I'm so tired of this bullsh!t. I want them to get this network underway so that it can fail miserably and then we can roundly mock them. What will they say then? I'm sure it will be some other excuse then..."the evil, conservative, media empires killed it", "Rupert Murdoch destroyed it", etc. I'm sure that's what we'll hear next.
THE LEFT'S MESSAGE IS REJECTED BY THE MAJORITY! GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEADS, MORONS!

Its not progressive. Its Socialist.
To: areafiftyone
When are these "progressives" going to realize that they had from 1993-2001 to get their '60s retread ideas across to the public and failed because the concepts were as unrealistic pitched by 50-year-olds as they were when pitched by 20-year-olds. They are simply living in the past; what they are really concerned about is having some media outlet they can turn to where their failed, outmoded ideas still are taken seriously. This is nostalgia, not policy. America has moved on to a more pragmatic, more conservative course out of various practical necessities. That is the reality, and they just hate reality trumping their youthful fantasy.

there already is a progressive radio network, it's called NPR They've got TV, too. Free Speech TV, I think it's called. It shows up on my cable as FSTV.
Anyway, it's a barrel of laughs. Sort of like VideoDU. There is no position so outrageous and offensive that they can't find some documentary filmmaker who hasn't covered it.
It's like the freak show at the circus: you feel guilty about gawking at them, but they did put themselves on public display.
To: areafiftyone
In an interview last December with the New York Observer, he described the conservative outlets as a "fifth column" within the media ranks that injects "daily Republican talking points into the definition of what's objective." In other words, if you don't toe the Democrat line you are a "fifth columnist" spewing false information to the masses.
