In Reply To: Given the choice, which of these two story themes do you think most local TV stations around the country would cover, costs being equal: 1. Anything having to do with government-based incompetence, inefficiency, or outright lies, or 2. American Idol/Apprentice/Survivor/Bacholer (ette)/Disney Party/Awards Show/Anything Oprah Sign of the times and all based upon tie-ins and promotions. The dirty work is now up to an intrepid few on TV and many very good ones in print.
Message: Check out my discussion: Open Letter. It's exactly why I'm leaving to do real journalism. A conscientious media should be all over the idiots that run this administration. And before any idiots start telling me to **** myself, no, it's not "liberal media" journalism, it's journalism period. This guy is worse that Nixon. Or do the neanderthals on this board think that Tricky Dicky was brought down by a left-wing media conspiracy ? Oh wait .. sorry ... The young brownshirt journalists on this board wouldn't have heard of Nixon.
