Someone should accuse him of trying to incite class warfare! :-)<br /><br />I WANT the media to be elite: I want them to be intelligent, objective and knowledgable. I don't want wankers like Russert or Hannity.Steve J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05952259820467688797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9823746.post-1105752304731802772005-01-14T20:25:00.000-05:002005-01-14T20:25:00.000-05:00Auletta got it wrong.

The whores on cable are popular precisely because they have a strong conservative/Republican bias and are willing to lie and distort to support the Administration. Freepers love this BS and they think it's all true. Auletta is out of touch.Steve J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05952259820467688797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9823746.post-1105751975033972892005-01-14T20:19:00.000-05:002005-01-14T20:19:00.000-05:00Yes people are starting to figure out that the cor...Yes people are starting to figure out that the corporate media system is problematic. <br /><br />I think that although blogs, and independent media are great, we must get the general public to notice them.

Public perception of mainstream news has hit a a new low, indeed, but it might get even worse. And in many ways, structural changes are ocurring of their own accord. Notice the exploding blogger phenomenon, which emerged in 2004 as a major force in media. Everthing now is in flux, whch isn't a bad thing. <br /><br />trac, georgiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
