9. I'm sorry if you were "flamed" for reporting on cable news --

The power of media cannot be underestimated, and has served Bush and the conservative right well. Cable news is one of the worst offenders. I don't watch Fox, but I do watch CNN and MSNBC, to see events as they happen, and I call frequently with complaints about their coverage. If news outlets don't ever hear from our side, they'll only get worse, and their influence more toxic. I don't believe in a head-in-the-sand attitude.
