All analysts I have been listening to since Oct have predicted the DOW
would fall to 7000 before we started seeing any relief. But now it is the fault of the Obama administration the DOW is tanking.

When will we see honest reporting? This right wing corporate BS coming across the public airways is driving me nuts! :banghead:

1. We will see and hear honest reporting when honest reporting is legislated.
Right now, there is nothing to prevent a news organization from telling straight out lies to the public, and present them as undisputed facts.

The air waves are off balance with right wing, conservative-leaning journalists, hosts, and anchors. Most of the media is owned by corporations with conservative interests. Is it any wonder we don't get the truth, or we get the truth as interpreted by the right wing?

We will need to enact some sort of Fairness Doctrine. It's the only way given today's media condensation. If there were more diversity in ownership, it would be a different story, but right now all we have as progressives is Air America, and Olbermann and Maddow, and a handful of others.
