The National Media

I was pleased to find out it wasn't just me who got pissed off at the media during the last presidential election.   During a Thanksgiving dinner at my son's in-laws the subject came up and they and the rest of those attending all agreed that they pretty much no longer watch the news on NBC, CBS, ABC , MSNBC AND CNN and a few others.   It really is sad that the national media sources think it is ok not to just report the news but to use their power to influence it.   Journalism in this country really is dead.  

The good old days of Walter Cronkite and Huntley/Brinkley are over and now we have the Ken & Barbie news teams with their inane banter bashing the Republicans and Conservatives at will; and the people running those news outlets cheering them on. 

RIP America 11/4/2008.
