Media-related question...

[helleborient]

Last fall it seemed there was close to consensus frustration here with neutral to negative media coverage of Democrats compared with Republicans.

This fall it seems to have evolved to complaints about the media if their coverage is negative to neutral about particular candidates.

These comments seem to elevate to a level that the media is a key problem with our country. It is just fundamentally wrong.

My question...what do the candidates, or the supporters of candidates, advocate that the next president should do about the media? What are the solutions?

I dislike Fox News as much as anyone else, and I also mourn the seeming downfall of real investigative journalism in major media outlets, but I also see...

Public radio support strong in this country...partly with the tremendous bequest from Joan Kroc that came out recently.

C-Span coverage of governmental events now available for FREE to any citizen who wishes to walk into their public library and view it on the Internet.

Independent journalism flourishing still on the Internet in a way which wasn't possible 15 years ago.

What will your candidate do about this media problem?

Or...what do you as a supporter propose should be done about this problem?

1. cap media's reach at 25%

and reinstate the fairness doctrine.

and go after media slander and libel

2. I'm in total agreement with that...

Now which candidate is actively talking about these as issues...and not just whining about media bias?
