19. I've noticed that there are very few leaders and a whole lot of followers
in TV land.

No one wants to be the guinea pig. The see one successful show and they all copy it hoping to share in the success. That is one reason that all the cable "news" shows are copying faux news.

There is a market out there which is us. We would watch as much as we come here to DU if the message was something we wanted to hear.

So often we are told that we have to be like wingnuts to get anywhere. That is bullshit. We don't have to turn our backs on women's issues or on gays or get angry.

We are here and if the media wants our attention they will come to us. My guess they will in time. Maybe sooner than later.

When I listen to wingnut radio lately they are attacking each other and whining about the success the Dems are having blocking their agenda even though we are not in power.
