I think it's a very interesting article. Like the Janet 'scandal', I wondered why this one was taken so far. It made no sense. I wasn't a big Dean fan, I was more in the Kerry camp, but I thought the whole thing portrayed him unfairly. Oh well.
Lately, I guess after seeing Harry Shearer in person speak about media responsibility in Monterey, I have been questioning all sides of the media spectrum. I don't believe a damn thing the left and right media has to say. I've turned off CNN, Fox 'News' and all TV news. It's all bunk. I've been enjoying surfing Google News and reading things from all sorts of perspectives.
I'm concerned about ownership rules. When one person can control several media outlets, I question that. It means someone rich can mold our country based on their own beliefs. Yikes.
I'm not sure which side assassinated Dean's chances at the presidency. One could say it was the liberal media, but Dean was the strongest voice for causes liberals support. One could say it was the right, but wasn't the Bush team expecting a Dean win and molding their campaign fights facing him?
I dunno.
Kill your TV. Read your news.
