I don't have time for your entire screed, but reporters ARE supposed to
be part of the process. They are supposed to speak truth to power and
stick up for the common person.


They're supposed to report facts, nothing more.

They are observers. Not participants.

Your ignorance regarding how our government works is typical of a WLS
hate junkie.

"Whether Web logs (known as blogs) or printed books, the media in a
democracy have a number of overlapping but distinctive functions that
remain fundamentally unchanged. One is to inform and educate. To make
intelligent decisions about public policy, people need accurate, timely,
unbiased information. However, another media function may be to advocate,
even without pretense of objectivity. Media audiences may benefit from
various, conflicting opinions, in order to obtain a wide range of
viewpoints. This role is especially important during election campaigns,
when few voters will have the opportunity to see, much less talk with,
candidates in person.

A second function of the media is to serve as a watchdog over government
and other powerful institutions in the society. By holding to a standard
of independence and objectivity, however imperfectly, the news media can
expose the truth behind the claims of governments and hold public
officials accountable for their actions."

I am disappointed but not surprised.

Your ability to reduce a civil discussion into name calling is
also typical of the socialist mentality.

Have a nice day, David.

If that were true, Lare would be sleeping with Karl Marx and Trotsky. Is he?

More interesting is that he cites Jon Stewart as a credible new
source, but dismisses Rush in the same breath.

Because as we all know, only Republicans lie.

Everybody lies. Some people act like they are perfect, but then get
caught being human. This humbles a decent person. An asshole just
proceeds like it never happened.

Talk about yer arrogance...

I haven't singled anyone out; who do you think I'm referring to, and why?

Roseanne Hale, in Lima,Ohio, she and I used to email chat politics crap
when she got off of work at two thirty night times.Then she emailed me
and said I am abominable.
I love you, Rosie.
