13. The corporate media requires the selling of commercials to exist, even
public television and radio need corporate donations to run their operations.

This inherent conflict of interest greatly limits and/or distorts the scope of allowable debate virtually always skewing toward the conservative aka: corporate point of view.

In the meantime the American People's best interests are ignored and the citizenry sold down the river to consumerville as the corporate media fiddles for corporations, while the nation burns.

Thanks for the thread, kpete.
