I hate the media because they think they're better than the public, period.

Any reporter or anchor that attends a single society party ought to be immediately fired.

I hate the media, and the people who are involved in it (Yeah, I hate them) because they want to turn my country into a concentration camp.

I don't worry so much for myself. Tyrants at a distance I can simply ignore, tyrants at close quarters I can wait for a dark night and 'engage'. (Hey, the fish have to eat too...)

It's my kids that I worry about. They grew up easier, and probably a little softer, than I did. They wouldn't fare as well in a slave camp as I could manage to.

I hate the dirty bastards because they’re a GD nest of traitors, with many of them being guilty of genuine, honest-to-God treason.

But it’s not all about hate. I'd dearly love to live to see the day that some of them dance on the end of a rope for their crimes.

Dan---

You nailed it! Of course, it won't make it to Hollywood as as a script for an epic film documentary, "Joe McCarthy, We Have Buried You!--The end of truth in American media."

The media are incestuous left-wing elitists. They genuinely believe they're brighter than all other human beings, and become outraged when we don't take their propaganda at face value.

Contemptible, obvious hypocrisy is their hallmark. Their unconcealed worship of the Clintons for the past 8 years speaks VOLUMES.

I stopped taking the local paper when they started using less news-print, in the papers, that my dog used in a week.

I hate the fact that Dan Rather twitches and stares at the camera with the glassy-eyed look and monotone delivery of a mental patient.

For telling me I shouldn't care about Klinton's Oral Office trysts because nobody else does.

Because, judging from what they choose to report, and how they report it, they hate my country, and love it's enemies...

"...Rather...?..."

LOL!

There's only one way to answer that, and it's with a counter-question...

Do you mean to tell me (with a straight face) that you don't hate that psychotic, lying, traitorous worm?

All the hippies went into law, academia, or media. When they were sophomores they bought into the fashion that Capitalism, aka business, is bad, and they wanted to express their moral superiority. Unfortunately, they cling to their Marxist fantasy on into their forties, fifties and sixties, ignoring all evidence that they were wrong. This makes them liars, which is not a good thing to be in the information business.

I don't hate the media, but I seldom listen to them. They are against Christianity and Christian values.

I second that. I would add that I love the country and the founding documents that shaped the vision of those who wrote them. I cherish my rights and I concider anyone who would undermine them as my enemies. Many fall into that catagory, the media, by and large, is included.

I repeat that all who advocate taking my rights away are my enemies. Foreign and domestic.

After working eleven years at a newspaper that serves approximately 200,000 people. I worked in the section of the paper where advertising and editorial come together.

I can tell you that they are for the most part the editors are arrogant, all-knowing pompous, liberal jerks.

I think that anchors Rather, Brokaw and Jennings think we hang on every word they say. We don't.

I took journalism in school and supposedly you should report facts. Today everything is basically an editorial, an opinion. That is not what news reporting should be.

I have about as much respect for the media as I do for Hollywood "stars" ... none.

When I was a freshman in High School our Civics teacher was discussing something Richard Nixon had said. (Dates me, doesn't it?) I'll steal from President Nixon with a slight modification.

I don't hate the media. You have to respect someone to hate them.

Shalom.

"...I hate all three of them..."

They are as surely enemies of this nation as have been any of the monsters we've faced since the Revolution.

Other foes have been, in turn, more powerful, more cunning and more open about their plans for this nation- granted.

But none have hated America with as much steady and implacable resolve as do these three bastard sons of bitches.

I don't even give them the pleasure of knowing that I turned them on for even a second.

I strongly dislike the media because they're like a bunch of traitors - always saying and doing what tears our beloved country apart.
