The rest is owned by the MIC. To say we have an 'open and honest' press in this country is laughable until belly cramping sets in. We have a tiny amount of people that try to tell the truth about what is going on. Then we have a billion dollar industry thats sole purpose is to decide what we should think and feel or believe is true or false. FUCK just giving the news...no no they tell us what we should believe is news and the rest is just gossip by jealous bloggers.

Thankfully I never watch Junk Cable News programs. I get my news from the WWW and channel 9. NPR if I am driving to work.
