Bill Moyers on the Right Wing Media/Video
http://www.crooksandliars.com/2004/12/18.html#a1098 has video highlights.
Bill Moyers makes his last appearance on NOW an important one; showing how the right-wing media has hijacked the information highway. Moyers tells the story of how "opinion" has been turned into "news" with an expert delivery system that supports the republican party's candidates and agenda.

1. I watched it
and it was just too scary. I don't know what we can do to recapture objective journalism again. It looks like the media is pretty much controlled by the rethuglicans. Back in the FIRST GILDED AGE we at least had independent newspapers - I guess we still do have a few, but nobody reads them. The last show for Bill was very depressing.
