People have lost their concept of what News is - these days News is mixed with commentary, analysis, and entertainment. However, the old rule still applies, "Dog bites man? Not news. Man bites dog? News." There was a lot of talk about how the "media elite" wasn't reporting on what's good in Iraq. THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S NOT NEWS! Good things aren't news - they're entertainment; bad things are news. The truth is, there is no "liberal bias" or "media elites" - It's just that there's no television news programs anymore except one: The News Hour with Jim Lehrer. "Liberal Bias" was invented by people who want to sell advertising on their programs; they get people to watch by coercing the coercible. Every other so-called "news" program, show, or network is just commentary or entertainment. Only ignorant people watch Fox News or CBS News and think they're seeing "news". BTW - for political analysis watch Shields and Brooks on The News Hour, Washington Week put out by WETA and syndicated by PBS, or the McLaughlin Group. Everything else is crap. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:143203 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
