Another predictable echo of faux noise.

Wouldn't it be great if all there was was faux noise, 24/7????

Carl Rove, Dick Morris, Pat Buchanan, Newt Gingrige, Sara Palan, Drug Limbo, and all these right wing Goebbels level hate mongering point of view relativists, funded by the same billionaire mogals that fund Israel and the American war industrial complex.

You people are so completely brainwashed, it's really amazing. You all are crapping 24/7 all over your own country, trying your best to tear any progress down, so the rich can continue owning and raping what is left.

Let the republitool right wing mating dance commence.

  hey missing brain
  why don't you try and prove that Senator Benjamin Cardin (D-MD) is not sponsoring this bill
  
  from Reuters
  
  U.S. bill seeks to rescue faltering newspapers
  
  WASHINGTON (Reuters) - With many U.S. newspapers struggling to survive, a Democratic senator on Tuesday introduced a bill to help them by allowing newspaper companies to restructure as nonprofits with a variety of tax breaks.
  
  "This may not be the optimal choice for some major newspapers or corporate media chains but it should be an option for many newspapers that are struggling to stay afloat," said Senator Benjamin Cardin.
  
  A Cardin spokesman said the bill had yet to attract any co-sponsors, but had sparked plenty of interest within the media, which has seen plunging revenues and many journalist layoffs.
  
  Cardin's Newspaper Revitalization Act would allow newspapers to operate as nonprofits for educational purposes under the U.S. tax code, giving them a similar status to public broadcasting companies.
  
  for people who are so much into evolution, the evolutionary cycle of the newpapers is coming to an end. They have become dinosaurs. If they can't survive in todays new media they need to go under.
