The Corp Whore Media causes Democratic infighting,
Edited on Sun Jun-05-05 06:46 PM by blondeatlast
and quite well, too.

Take it out of context, set it* up for other Dems to comment on, and make sure you figure out a way to make it the lead story, as well as the biggest topic of discussion on a huge progressive message board.

Congratulations, CNN/CWM; you've done an exccellent job serving your masters today...

*Edit: the out of context quote

3. Yes....but we ignore what they do at our Peril. It's important that we
keep at them for their lies. They are watching us begrudgingly. The more we catch their propaganda and disinformation the more we push back.

Dean needed to be defended. The only way we can do it is to scream it on the Democratic sites. To not do so would mean that we are complicit with their lies and disinformation.

We Progressives are activists. And many of us united under Kerry and fought to get Dean into his position as DNC Chair. We had to go against unbelievable odds and entrenched Party Machinery to do it. But our party needs voting reform and financing reform...plus alot more after three failed elections.

We will defend our right for REFORM. As citizens it's our duty to do that if we disagree with failed policies who are driving our country into moral and ethical chaos.

4. The corporate media,, servants of the corporate government.

We have to do it on our own. Stop buying their services. Stop the cable, the satellite subscriptions, the papers and magazines. It is ALL that they will understand.

There are plenty of on-line open source avenues available. Learn to love your computer and get to really love the net. Say goodbye to your spouse. Check out the Democracy Cell Project.

edit: Just kidding about the spouse thing.
