She was on BookTV today, saying exactly what you bring up. But she also said that it's as close to impossible as you can get for her to get on a channel and a program that is watched by more than 5 people. And that's been the case for 20 years, since they did away with the fairness doctrine.

So it depends on who you talk about. The people that can get a voice on everyday TV, for the most part, have gone back to their daily routine. That includes Democrats or people left of center. But then that's why they're usually the ones that get picked to appear on those shows.

Don't wait for outrage from elected officials, outside of a very few.

And the most important part is that the people currently in power don't really give a damn. They will do, or try to do, everything that they want. They're not going to stop.
