What are your thoughts on the American Press?

Answer 1

they are failing to inform Americans of certain dangerous trends in America.
like no more religion in school and how this was done and by what type of thinking did we get to this point in America.
We have given all our rights over to the state and federal government and this is what happens when you pass laws restricting freedom .WHEN you tell me it is illegal to be in a public place like a park after 10 pm or before 6 am you have opened your self to so many losses of freedom that , that type of law makes possible i am ashamed to be an American today .
We had people fight and die so that we could be free from oppression and servitude.The right to have representation to ensure the public intrests were served and not taxed without it being for the good of the people.
THAT these people would never pass laws that infringed upon the basic freedoms of all men and the bill of rights describes our freedoms.This does not mean o fifty foot statue of a naked man and woman engaged in intercourse can not be placed in public on my property.
this does not mean i can not engage in sexual acts on my property in full veiw of passers by.
THIS does not mean that Ican not or should not be deprived of the right to be free.
to this end you have the right not to buy my services not to have me work for you denie me permission on your property denie me the right to shop in your store and to make it known that you do not approve of my actions and until i come to my senses i am not wanted around.
you may say this leads to discrimination but i say it leads to people providing work and food and services to the very type of person that you wish not to support in yopur community and those who wish to help them by giving food and jobs and support can also be included in you freedom to denie sevices to such people as you see fit .
THIS however does not give me the right to refuse sevice on account of race religion or sex age marital statues and so on .
BY making sex in public veiw illegal you have violated that persons rights to do as he wishes and there fore opened your self up to laws being passed to prevent you from doing what you wish .
BAD community behavior needs to be handled by the people in the community by making live difficult for people wh othrough there actions do not change to meet those standards and it is your right to refuse to help someone for these resons and these reasons alone.Some where in america naked statues and open sexual gratification may be acceptable and in many places it is not so naturaly some one stiggmatized by a community would search out a place that he could live in peace and enjoy freedoms to shop and go where he is accepted .by passing laws against anyplace exsisting where he can do this you risk losing your freedoms also .
America does not recognize the danger in forbidding gay marriage or many other laws that end freedom and more and more america is becoming a police state.ONLY people who can afford fifty foot fences are free today to do what i have descibed and this is wrong america for what goes on behind closed doors can affect all americans if to many fences go up all of us lose our freedom and the ones behind the fence do as they please secure in there property to act as they will.these were called lords of the manner dukes and so forth with the power and control of the people who the took pleasure in taking from there hard work and goods for the protection of the castle walls.
HAVE we become so entreched in our own needs and freedoms we have destroyed all freedom and choice i may not agree with a persons right to say what they want like a kid who mentions jesus in a speach at school but i sure do defend her right to do so as well as a man to erect a disgusting statue or fonicate in public as repulsive as i find some behavior it is freedom i find more important then stoping him .ONCEone persons behaviour is questioned it only becomes a matter of time till you too are being denied your freedoms.
WE have let our politicians take all our freedoms in the name of morality and desency leaving us free to work for the people behind the fences .

Answer 2

I think the biggest problem with the American Press is that they stopped reporting the facts, what happened, and have tried to become part of the story. They've developed agendas, which is very detrimental to true reporting. Instead of reporting the happenings, they now have two goals; getting the people elected they want elected, and turning as big a profit as possible.

Answer 3

Very biased and have a huge knack of making mountains out of mole hills. I really don't believe anything that comes out of the mainstream media. Anything I hear I try to back up with independent research or look for multiple sources. I believe the media has lost credibility a long time ago. The times reporter who was fired for making up stories is a prime example, no one in America was surprised when that story broke.

Answer 4

The press? just people
everyone has their own opinion
I know not to believe everything I read or hear.

Answer 5

STAN- The other channels all have a liberal bias, but they get average or low ratings that's why they don't get shown in the UK. Fox gets ratings because of the silent majority that supports them and votes for Bush. Also because they don't denigrate the troops.

Answer 6

Overthrown

Answer 7

Relatively irresponsible and self-serving at most any cost.

Answer 8

I think they've outlived their usefulness!
