DU reporter grills White House briefer{?}:no more lapdog media someday
Edited on Thu Aug-18-05 01:31 PM by oscar111
Why not a

DU NEWS SERVICE

and an

AAR NEWS SERVICE,

each with reporters in the White House news corps? To attend the press briefings with ?McClellan? whats-his-name.

Europe has an "opposition press" and we do not. We have Lapdog Media.

DU and AAR could become our "opposition press".

IF WE AT LEAST TRY, if we're excluded, we can complain and demand to know why. It at least raises some questions.

We have everything to lose by doing nothing. We MUST take all feasible counter-active measures possible, as soon as possible.

The forces that have accomplished the take-over of the media we're now waking up to are NOT resting.
