...OWN all of the M$M.

Your theory may have some validity, but more than that - the problem is WHO OWNS THE MEDIA - for-profit (ie: NOT for the public) corporations. Five to seven BIG ones.

It is in THEIR best interest (and we know it and they know it) to keep REPUBLICANS in the White House - and if they can't do that, then Republican Lite Democrats who won't upset the status quo (and who won't affect their stranglehold influence in our political discourse and in our government policies).

THAT is why they ignore him (NOT because of money they're not getting NOW but rather to keep him from affecting money AND INFLUENCE) that they want to KEEP getting in the future.
