7. I am seriously, seriously done with network news, cable news...
except for Keith Olbermann...& I'm going to continue getting my news from independent news sources on the internet.

One exception: PBS. I watched "NOW" last night about Condi Rice, the American Indian casino scandal (they were taken advantage of mafia-strongarm-style by a lobbyist connected to Tom DeLay), & appropriately ending with a segment about Tom DeLay. The information was relayed to the viewer as if the viewer had no prior information about the subject, easy for an elementary student to follow. I haven't been a regular viewer of NOW before last night, but I plan to watch from now on.

And I'll continue to read my FAIR mailings, as Jeff Cohen recommended. He seems to think the progressives are making some headway into preventing the corporate media's disinformation campaign.
