it is they are TRYING to rig things. Never doubt that. They might adapt to defeat, might childishly cheer the Dems and cozy up to them. But just as the RW still harbors the inane credo of the "liberal press" out to get them we should recognize an agenda when we see one and tactics constantly repeated without consequences for lying and slander. Worse than the O'Reillys and Limbaughs, etc. is the cultural bias and
professional betrayal of what seems moe and more a hopeless contradiction. Corporate journalism. Corporate journalism is always going to be wallpapered with corporate propaganda, hidebound in establishment perspective, wound up like a deranged clock by topdown judgment and favor currying. The wonderful display of self-satisfied, fantasy glazed naivete that ones does not look for in corporate execs, cynical news people, pols and the just plain rich offsets our anger. the different sides of that same coin are not all ruthlessly lever.

But in the aggregate, the ugly machinery that most resembles the biblical curse of the World acts with supreme confidence, conning, spinning a different planet on a different axis.

And trying to convince us to all join in, for without us neither money, nor culture, nor celebrity no any faith or myth has any power or any real existence. Without democracy and without truth it always has to be rigged.
