Media chiefs back Kerry campaign
Fresh from his latest win in Maine, the favourite to challenge George Bush for the
US presidency has secured the financial support of some of the most powerful media
moguls in the world.

As John Kerry's campaign to secure the Democrat nomination - and with it a crack at
the White House - continues to gather pace, it has emerged that it is being
bankrolled by key executives from News Corporation, MTV-owner Viacom and Sony.

1. Is there any argument left????

Wow, the media cheiftans are getting behind Kerry. Are they sensing a change in the wind or just riding the wave????

So media executives are now backing Kerry. Didn't we have a bunch of discussions about how all the media outlets were pimping Kerry. Does anyone think that Kerry will try to break up the media oligopolies???

If Kerry wins, we will need a Congress of REAL Democrats (not DLCers) to balance out Kerry's devotion to special interests.
