Does the 'Obama Phenomena' prove that our media outlets are entertainment sources only.

They are the lawyers representing the corporate powers' interests in this trial we call an election.
We the jury just don't get to hear the case for Kucinich and others who are not favored by corporate powers.

The same news media that has consistently covered up the crimes of the Bush administration isn't going to suddenly become objective overnight.
Of course you can't trust them.

Of course, they can't be trusted. The media is the prime reason that we've been having this election since, what, 2005?
