2. Sorry pal. Media has this clip and others of McHate defending
progressive taxation.

They have clips of McHate contradicting himself by promoting deregulation before and regulation now.

They have clips of McHate being in favor of progressive taxation and against it.

The corporate media are consolidated into Republican hands now. The 50 companies we had in the 80's have been consolidated into only FIVE conservative owned conglomerates.

They'll toss in a few anti McHate stories but have been trying hard to prop up his campaign.

Just as they allowed a few criticisms of Bush to be aired during the past seven years, but did their best to support the rush to war in Iraq and go along with other criminal policies of his and Cheney's.

Mix in a few liberals and you can keep people thinking their press is kind of fair.

For more background on the right wing campaign to push the media to the right:
