In reply to the discussion: WOW! Did you SEE all the coverage Morning Joe gave the climate change march today?! [View all]locks
(2,012 posts)covered the march. If you want to see what is really happening in the world it is one of the very few places where you may find some real reporting, investigation, and going behind the headlines. (Their "Inside Report" coverage and information on Ebola and what is happening to West Africa's and world economies is not found on mainstream media.) The problem is that if you didn't see Al Jazeera's stories, you cannot always find the same information on the net. PBS Newshour also does not put their shows on the net until the next day or later.
Thanks to Democracy Now! we could see coverage on the net live streaming. But as always with mainstream media just follow the money that leads to the sponsors and who owns the channels. Is it any wonder that people elect crazy right-wingers when all they see, read, and hear is mindless, brainwashing crap?
