Reply #37: I'm tired of blaming the media. What is Kerry's plan to combat media bias? [View All]

I understand and agree with you that the media helped bury Kerry.

But- I saw it as it was happening-and I had ideas to combat it. Why didn't the Kerry people?

What are Kerry or others going to do about it when it happens in '06 &'08?

I hope Kerry gets media savy people on '08 who will know to punch the Wolf Blitzers in the throat everytime they shill for the GOP.

I would have called them out on it.

I would have said "The media, and commentators like (insert actual names here) are helping Bush lie (and use that word) about my voting record and war record. Here are some examples..." He & Edwards could have spent 2 minutes & 30 seconds in every speech doing this.

They could have done it to their faces on the interview shows, and asked them to their faces to clarify the "untruthful statements you allowed to go unchallenged on your program."

Is Kerry going to do this in '08, or do I have more "its the media's fault we lost again" excuses to look forward to?
