      Um...one person being fired doesn't mean anything. She was a PA. A girl who gets coffee and makes sure that that the scripts are followed.

      And I don't think anyone was saying that there is some "vast right-wing controlled media empire out there manipulating content." It was one network. Fox News. Period.

      They hitched their wagon to Bush and now they don't care because they learned how to shock people without Bush's help.

          That's because they are owned by right-wing corporations. But, it isn't some conspiracy. It is a fact.

          Understand?

          Murdoch owns a lot. Zell now owns a lot. And there are only 4 major companies who control the media now.

          Those 4 compnaies are run by conservatives, typically.

          See? No conspiracy. Just facts. Fox is the only one of the major news networks who drastically changed news copy or its presentation to warp the story to fit their ideology. That is also a fact.

          One example is when they reported that Toe Tapping Senator Craig was a democrat on the news crawl at the bottom of the screen.

          No more need be said. That wasn't a mistake. That was manipulation.

      Obviously,you haven't been paying attention or you would realize that Chris Matthews is - as Stephanie Miller aptly once described - a right-wing tool. And Matthews has hardly been "tingly" over Barack Obama.

      ...and as this campaign heads into general election, the conservative bias of corporate media will be even more apparent.

  Do you think that NBC will fire George Stephanopolous? Or will they simply name him to "moderate" another debate?

  This firing is certainly unusual. The so-called news channels routinely hire partisan "commentators."

      I'm sure that you've been waiting for months for such an opportunity. I hope that you enjoyed correcting me, because it may never happen again.

      At last one of your life's dreams has been fulfilled! Good job!

          I know you've been "correcting me all along." But this is notable because it's the first time you've been right!

  I got the feeling that her sin wasn't in voting for McCain. I suspect she was fired for engaging in an unauthorized discussion with him, which could have distracted him from the interview or panel he was about to take part in. I don't think news stations encourage their employees to do that.

    I do not think that folks who read and comment on these threads are SHEEPLE, I think most of us are capable of digesting information and making our own decisions.....

  Feeding the Republican Loon

  ---

  A shill in the morning

  A shill at noon

  With bright plastic smiles

  They feed the repugnant loon

  They report a school killing

  Or a despondent mom's grief

  Then turn with a giddy smile

  And say "How about that weather Keith!"

  The Todd or Sean, or whomever

  Say's things will brighten up later

  Meanwhile the world's sinking

  Deeper and deeper into nadir

  Doesn't matter to the loon

  He's really quite fed

  He thanks Bush for a do nothing job

  The empty soul, his plastic wife, and his bed

  Falls asleep

  He'll be ready at the helm tomorrow

  To criticize those who disagree- those who think about those who don't eat

  Deeply bent in his own denial

  He's ever mystified,,, hypnotized,

  By that Fox smile.
