What is the "drive-by media"?
what does that turn mean? I mean i actually like the term, it sounds cool, and I could see it having a meaning to us, tho I hear Rush Limbo use it a lot. What does he exactly mean when he says that?

3. How many topics a week get covered?
How many get ignored so that the sensational stuff can be covered nonstop?

I think that's where it's coming from.
