8. Dean...
While I wholeheartedly agree that the presentation of the news is influenced by corporate America, slamming the media worries me to some degree because of what happened to Dean late last year. Back in early December when he was still riding high, Dean came out and said essentially that the media needed to be disbanded and control of it needed to be spread out. I believe this was around the time or just after the FCC ruling? At any rate, the media's fascination with Dean spoiled immediately and it hardly seems to be a coincidence... While taking on big media certainly should be on the agenda, I'm not sure how wise it is to make enemies with most of America's source for news and election coverage.
