It's been said before and needs to be repeated yet again: the Big Media of network TV and the popular-yet-ever-more monopolized/monopolizing newspapers in America still have way *TOO MUCH* influence over public opinion in America. The same people own the NYTimes and the Boston Glob; ditto the WashPost and Newsweek mag. Gannett owns many newspapers across America. So, when the bigs of these media empires decide something "is what it is" (acccording to *THEM*), well, that's all she wrote.
In the beginning of Bush's term he was being slowly Chinese water-tortured by the Big Media, but that stopped when 9/11 took place. (Guess Bush did it after all.

)
No, Big Media knew they couldn't buck basic American patriotic fervor after we were so viciously attacked out of the clear blue, so they decided they'd back the president... as long as it suited *their* purposes. But as time wore on and they couldn't get anymore play out of selling the war on the 6 o'clock news or the morning paper, and couldn't wring any more advertising dollars out of the war, they decided that a change was necessary, so they have turned 180 degrees and now attack Bush at every turn, sometimes subtly, but attack is what they are doing. Make no mistake about it. And it is orchestrated from the top of the Big Media empire.
The internet and local/national radio is the only thing standing in the breach to prevent another presidential lynching in the press. They couldn't get Reagan because he knew their game, but they got Nixon and Bush, Sr., and now they are after Bush, Jr.
Larry King hosts "Lady" Pelosi tonight. Gee, I didn't know we had installed "royalty" in America!! When did that go to a vote??
