~The greater the ignorance the greater the dogmatism~
Sir William Osler
Been over this....socialist propaganda...
"Ellie light" illustrates why the old media is DYING and why the new media is already king.
So we get to recap this again eh doggy...
"We need to do whatever we can to limit capitalist propaganda, regulate it, minimize it, and perhaps even eliminate it."

They dont want to save journalism....they want to OWN it with a govt strong arm and gate keeper...
American pravda.
that 'Ellie Light' story you, eh...'broke'....a couple weeks ago has been a such national sensation ever since
(smirk). Surprised that it didn' t come up during that Obama meeting with House GOPers last week...no mention from their side while Obama was busying back-handing the forlorn bunch. Didn't John Boehner cut it short to make his tanning appointment??
'We need to do whatever we can to limit capitalist propaganda, regulate it, minimize it, and perhaps even eliminate it."
It's probably a stellar idea to limit, regulate, minimize or even eliminate any propaganda from any political viewpoint...capitalist, communist, all points in between, dontcha think there, Beav? That's why it's known as...propaganda.
I find it amazing that people read less yet there are more magazines and books printed than ever before.
People keep saying the media is dieing. It's not it's just changing. Those who adapt the fastest will be the most successful.

All news papers are dying. How is the Washington Times doing? Certainly a news paper like that should be doing well with the Tea Bagging crowd…
