Goose and Gander.

What is good for the goose is good for the gander?

Not when it comes to a fair, unbiased, neutral 1st. amendment reporting by the mainstream media, what a bunch of wussies (the mainstream media kool aid drinkers).  They are so in the bag for this lying maybe on the next go round I'll keep some of my campaign promises...................

The current media definitely without  a doubt smoked dope, drank shooters, snorted coke, and graduated with liberal arts, communications degrees, to ultimately be used as pay back by the sorry ass liberal machine that created these morons.  They are incapable of original thought or intellectual honesty.

Failure is in the eye of the beholder.

Read this, not a lie, but the truth.  Why is this not being reported throughout channels 2 thru 50 and all newpapers to put things in perspective, you know to be fair and present all sides of an issue without prejudice.

Newspapers are tanking, the msm smells blood and have sold out truth, objectivity, and unbiased reporting in order to save their skins. Period. They're steered by their master the far reaching arm of socialism which is why I dubbed them "The Re-education Machine."
Welcome to the machine! Pink Floyd was prophetic. Thanks Konane.
Newspapers are tanking because they stopped doing their job. The New York Times has less credibility than the National Enquirer. More people are getting their news online and getting more informed. But even online, most of the major news sources are tainted. AP is getting terrible. Foreign news organizations seem to provide the best coverage for the US. Sad, ain't it?



One of the main reasons newspapers are failing, Rick, is because of technology, not politics. We live in a different world than when people picked up their paper from the lawn before drinking their morning coffee. Half the time, mine is sitting in a puddle. (although we haven't had many puddles here in FL lately!) We enjoy getting our news on our computers, iPhones, Blackberrys..whatever. Others like turning on the tube at night.   Think of yourself as an advertiser who wants to be seen by thousands, not hundreds.   When was the last time you found a sale in the local newspaper? Thursday is the day our supermarket changes its ads and I just went to the Publix site to look at the specials. That's not politics. It's change.

People like to point fingers at the "liberal media." I've been called a Liberal so many times on this board, it makes me chuckle. I'm blonde, but if I agree with a brunette down the road or a redhead on the next block, does that mean I'm really not a blonde? It just means I don't have a myopic point of view and listen to all sides and use logic & reason to sort things out without a personal agenda.   



JX that is almost laughable and cute.   Only the rich have technology according to the media, they can't even afford to but their own antennas for going "digital" to watch The Oprah. They deliver advertising to our mailboxes here at least twice a week.   There is some validity to what you are saying about technology, but the newspaper is the newspaper, no reboots, no scrolling, no panning, no clicking back and forth. Then again I know you came from the northeast right? The New York Times ."USED TO" be big in the D.C. area and all up and down the east coast, they've blown it, they weren't beat by the technology as they have it also, they are losing because it ain't the news that is fit or true to print the bias of NYT was made clear in competition for the truth in any distribution means. This is why the NYT is renting out 20 floors of its building so they can aviod selling it to avoid default. The monopoly by the old media is over and they won big in the last election, they would've been done if Obama lost. It was do or die to get him elected in order to keep relevant in the discussion. Problem is he is now in office and some of those that supported him blindly are starting to regain some vision and clarity back, such as Cramer, Santelli, Welch, and Warren Buffet etc. ......


Remember there are over a 150,000,000 people in the US that didn't vote last time, when they start having Obama's policies affecting them negatively.................they might start voting for real change. Cause you ain't going to be able to blame Bush anymore, sooner than you think.


Only your hairdresser knows for sure.
There is one thing about print news.
Once it is printed and on the streets there is no pullback on what has been written. You see many news articles on the het that is too easily controlled by the delete button.
Jarasan, I didn't expect to get a civil response, since you are so filled with anger that you are blinded by it, no matter what's in front of you. Laugh all you want at me, call me cute in your condescending and contemptuous manner, but didn't you just post a photo of a woman at a soup kitchen with a cell phone and get sarcastic about it? Now you are saying only the wealthy have computers. Huh? Computers are in every school and library, and they are free to use. There isn't a college that doesn't require a student to own a laptop.

Newspapers rely on advertising to survive. When retailers are struggling, they no longer place full page ads in the paper.   Craig's List has had a big impact on classified too.   I've seen major corporations advertising in the jobs section. Look at car insurance. Years ago, everyone wanted to go into their local insurance office and buy auto insurance. Now you can't turn on the TV for an hour without seeing a Geico.com or Progressive.com commercial. In fact, the TV ad for Progressive tells you they offer discounts to people who buy online.

In 2008 the Christian Science Monitor, not exactly a bleeding heart liberal newspaper, went online and discontinued its printed newspaper. After 100 years they decided that people would rather sign onto the internet or turn on their TV sets than buy a newspaper.   Here is the article from last September, about a month before they went completely online.

So who is the idiot now?



JX you said it:

"Computers are in every school and library, and they are free to use. There isn't a college that doesn't require a student to own a laptop."

That is exactly the point I am trying to make thru a sarcastic comment, as like wake up and "READ" what I am saying. Things aren't as bad as they are made out to be. JX you say "they are everywhere! Everybody in America is connected from the poor to the rich!

I am essentially AGREEING with you. Let me refer to what I wrote,

" they weren't beat by the technology as they have it also, they are losing because it ain't the news that is fit or true to print the bias of NYT was made clear in competition for the truth in any distribution means."

What I saying is that, a publication like Christian Science monitor (as you point out) has a viable profitable business model as an on-line service because it can get advertising and a large subscriber base.   When you get a username and password on a web site and visit it, it is documentable and valuable to people or companies that might buy advertising if the (subscriber base) numbers are high. Lotterypost has this business model solely from on-line exposure, worldwide audience, kicking ^%*% notice the ad spots cranking.

The NYT subscriber base overall print AND online is dwindling because the virtual or paper versions are the same biased, skewed, and suspect prose.

I don't think I called you an idiot.
