As it comes to light that what has been disparaged as “leftist” since Reagan rescinded the Fairness Doctrine is truly centrist despite media efforts, DiSouza finds himself competing for the attention of an ever-dwindling number of hateophiles. The good news is now that the damage they’ve wrought is undeniable, even mainstream media consumers find it increasingly uncomfortable to tolerate this fascist fringe, and are starting to abandon these polemics.
The bad news is that while the ratings at Faux continue to plummet, even a mere 30% of Americans still supporting the Administration means that the likes of DiSouza will have plenty of potential customers for the forseeable future. Our duty as patriots is to put them deeply in check and keep them there where they can do no harm. Clear, hold, and build, as it were. We must meet their every contrived syllable with truth, and never ever falter.

Lying good news like the “holy” beeble sells pretty good too. How is the writer above lying ? She nailed this little hindu neoconman faker. I heard him yesterday on NPR and he is pure Bushite garbage. What
“good news” is the media censoring ?

BM,
I didn’t say anyone is lying.
My point is that so much of what’s presented as news (24/7), as a problem (Y2K, bird flu) as a scam, (War on Terror) is really manufactured to sell magazines, papers, or TV commercials.
At least this article’s headline doesn’t start with a question. I hate that!
“Will actress so-and-so have his baby?” (Oh, so much to worry about.)
