8. Hello Jackpine Radical... I agree with you that there is only
a corporate toady press, as far as the "mainstream" is concerned.

But you know what? Just since Nov. 3 or so, I've been keeping a log of internet sites which put out a message which mirrors what people here are feeling, and there are so many such sites that I can't keep up with them all! That's our media--and it's available even to those who are trapped in "red" states. It may not have the noise or insidious presence of a loud TV, but it's still out there. And it's this internet media from which I get all my news now--not the TV.

I hope the TV, AND the spewing radio talk shows, AND those newspapers that give only the corporate message, will soon find themselves entirely marginalized, as news-followers begin to read internet news sites that tell us the truth. I hope it makes the "mainstream" media and their advertisers lose big money. If they lose money, they WILL notice.
