I am sick and damn tired of the bullshit excuses by the media for their behavior!!!

SICK AND DAMN TIRED!!!

The media wants its "consumers" to believe the media is providing excellent service by polling and/or being guided by polls, as if the media is a provider of populist views rather than an aggressive influence upon public opinion. What a (excuse me) fucking load of lies.

The media is a profit-sucking disease imposing manufactured perceptions as if reality upon the American people!!!

And I am (excuse me) fucking sick SICK SICK and damned tired of the media pretending to be a tool of news and information when it is nothing other than a manufacturer of views friendly to corporacrats.

Thank you for tolerating my (excuse me) fucking rant!

I just wish we would take the greatest obstacle to truth, justice and democracy TO TASK. I swear, I'd rather MARCH ON MEDIA than march on washington this year.
