Â

Our newsmedia are running the country! You won t stand up and go on the air or insist on a chance to fight their distortions. Why does the NBC Today Show or Good Morning America get to tell us what is important and then tell us what to think?

Â

The mainstream propagandists just got through wasting a whole week of television coverage on the Louis Gates faux controversy which THEY trumped up; and then they were allowed by YOU Democratic leaders to stonewall any and all discussion of national healthcare reform.

Â

It would be better to have a news blackout and/or no news at all than to have the only version of events the public gets to hear being that which comes out of a corrupt propaganda machine.Â

Â

Why does Barack Obama and the Democratic leadership in Congress refuse to re-visit, have hearings about and re-install the old Fairness Doctrine? We are forced to hear only the version put out by the MSM_GOP conspiracy. And by now it is obvious that truth plays little or no part in GOP thinking.  The vicious fanaticism of the right wing and its national party hacks

is pseudo-religious and politically opportunistic. The GOP is little more than an aggressive religio-political cult, yet you let them and their allies in the media move heaven and earth to play "gotcha with Barack Obama and his presidency. They are out to destroy him and undermine the job that the American people elected him to do, i.e. fix the mess left by the Republican reign of malfeasance for most of the last 30 years.

Â

Well then, after the press "got Obama with their phony issues and trumped up controversies, they wouldn't let it go or move on. Even Michael Jackson and his Lenin-style post mortem cult has received more press attention than has the national healthcare "debate".

Â

Why won't you you won t fight this kind of abuse of media influence and start investigations and seek to re-regulate the media so that they can't continue to conspire with the GOP and continue to abuse the public trust and simply hang on with their jaws to phony issues like a pit bull worries a bone?

Â

Our spineless congressional Democrats and President just passively allow the mainstream newscasters to play hell with our national broadcasting for weeks , even months.
