WHEN THE PRESS DIED
What has happened to the American Televised News Media? Where is Walter Cronkite, David Brinkly, John Chancelor, Howard K. Smith, Peter Jennings or Edward R. Morrow. Why are we presented with pale imitations of the once high values of journalism as a proud servant of the people in the American Press today?
There is an epidemic of biased press people in all media from the Republican wing of the White House at Fox News whose unbelievable slogan (with a straight face) is "fair and balanced" to the African American wing of the Democratic Party at MSNBC and NBC with Keith Olberman's straightforward attacks on the right and Chris Matthews experiencing electric currents going up his leg when the current Charismatic Black Idol speaks.
Partisan Propaganda is the order of the day with even the venerable New York Times placing unsubstantiated tabloid rumors and gossip worthy only of such trash tabloids as the National Enquirer on it's front page above the fold on allegations against the Republican standard bearer John McClain.
The whole lot of them have become simply media whores either Bush or Obama Pimps.
About John McClain. Give me a break. There is nothing there.
Who cares?
Not the once trustworthy American Press and that's a SHAME!!!
