Um, I noticed how he forgot to mention CNN, MSNBC, NBC and ABC as being liberal. This guy stands there and lies through his teeth.

The reason there is no equivalent to Hannity, Beck et al is because America doesn't tolerate it.

scotty... that is Robert Kennedy Jr. talking, not Ted.... and if you did your homework you might know that NBC, ABC, MSNBC and CNN are all corporate-owned media outlets...

the fact that they have SOME liberal commentators in fact reenforces what Kennedy was saying...they have BOTH sides of the spectrum represented to keep the ignorant masses believing the lies... its called plausible deniability.

you seem to be proving their programming perfectly.

actually, CNN is no longer owned by Ted Turner - a fact he resoundingly regrets...

CNN owned by Time-Warner communications giant who donated $1.6million to Bush in 2000.

NBC... owned by GE makers of nuclear weapons, depleated-uranium munitions... oh and appliances.... no wait they just sold that part... oh yeah also overpriced medical equipment that they just had Congress pass laws to shield them from any liability lawsuits... its good to be king.

MSnbc... well you know the NBC part- the other a little company in Washington State called Microsoft.

ABC... Mickey Mouses's employer, Disney.. who also holds large stock assets in oil and gas companies.

yes Scotty... you should say more... but try sticking to facts.

which part of my statements and post did you not understand?

plausable deniability.... give the people divergent viewpoints to keep their trust in the system.

control the viewpoints carefully... Bill Moyer was censored, as was Phil Donahue... they were too caustic forthe ratings...

today with a 27% approval rating... it not only makes sense... but DOLLARS AND CENTS to prop up some liberal viewpoints... personally, Obermann is as bombastic as Oreally... they are both Comic Relief.

Corporations have long proved they would eat their young if it meant higher ratings... thats the problem.

Yes Scotty, these corporations are allowing liberal viewpoints to be heard.... but not throughout their broadcast spectrum... what about talk radio?

I hate the fact that the media has successfully sold America that Democracy means a two-party system.

Nowhere on earth has any system been called a democracy that had two choices... Iraq's democracy had more than 100 "parties" represented... as little as fifty years ago America had five parties... now as Howard Zinn (i think) coined... the rich have two parties representing their interests and the rest of us... have none.

I'm no fan for any of the choices, but Obama has the greatest potential for change... and right now... we really need a change. Hillary and McCain will both be disasters for our economy.

given that reality... the choice is hard to deny.

Please answer my question, Katbird.

Scotty....one bad apple doesn't spoil the whole bunch.
Ted is now paying for his crimes. He will suffer until the end and go to the grave knowing he was not a good person. Why do you think he's an alcoholic? He drinks away his guilt. I have no respect for Ted, but Robert and John will always have my respect.

Good enough for me, Kat. Truth be known, I agree with more of what Ron Paul has to say than the other 3.

Let's put it this way, my friend - the man is far too left for my liking. Thanks for the chart.

The right has mishandled several things, including the war. That doesn't mean I am against the war(s), but rather that I am against politicians mismanaging them.

Are we better off since 2000? With regrad to other nations, no. And mind you, that won't change no matter who gets in office. You must realize that united Islam has been at war for centuries and that we are an obstacle to them.

I have benefitted as far as this goes: I have steady employment, I have vehicles and I have a side business.

I am never against coalitions as long as they're not socialist in structure. Taking from my wealth to give to the poor is done through taxation and my generosity. We don't need a bigger chunk of our salaries going to unsupervised entitlement programs for the lazy and deadbeats of our nation.
