The Media is.........?

Watching and Listening to Fox News the other day, I was in great despair over this renegade group called "The Media". Where did they come from anyhow to dominate our lives so clandestinely? These are the true terrorists! I began to research this nefarious group.

MEDIA means communications industry. That means Television, Radio and now Internet. Nobody reads national newspapers. People only read local papers for local news, sports and weather...and not necessarily in that order. Do most people honestly read the Washington Post, NY Times, Chicago Tribune or LA Times? Does anyone read Le Monde in the United States?

Back to my research. Well, who dominates Television? Multi-National Corporations. Why would Multi-National Corporations be so LIBERAL? Democracy means representation, fairness, equality, liberty and freedom. It doesn't mean bottom line. It means regulation, exposition and adherence to standards. It doesn't mean bottom line. It means government oversight on private industry not laisse faire. Am I missing something?

So the Multi-National Corporations that dominate the United States of America are: NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, UPN and WB. Now that Dan Rather is gone from CBS, Tom Brokaw is gone from NBC and O'Reilly dominates Fox, Who exactly is the MEDIA?

Who dominates radio? FM Radio is dominated by Clear channel and Infinity. AM Radio is dominated by Religious, Sports, Right Wing and Cultural Stations. It is a Christian, Conservative and Nascar Fan dream outlet for information and entertainment.

When I hear the MEDIA chastised on Fox News, it makes me wonder. Are they talking about Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Joe Scarborough, Tucker Carlson, Bob Novak, Mike Savage, Michael Smerconish or Brit Hume? I'm really not sure.

So I ask again....The Media is ...................?
