Absolutely not. The media is a source of information and it is for the user to sift through it and find the useful parts, and by doing some investigation and using several media outlets one can come to the truth of any matter and form their own opinion, unlike those who are told what to think by bill oriely.

no I get all my news on the internet and I read the paper from russia, germany, britian and some of the yahoo ones. I havent watched the news in over a decade. I think I sleep better since I am not afraid of getting nuked by Iran or N Korea, bird flu, global warming, global freezing, economic collapse, man they have so many things I should be afraid of I dont think theres anything good in the world.

Yes I am aware of there control. I see it every day. The media does not control me or manipulate me in anyway. It was much easier habit to break than smoking was.

I think for myself. When I hear a news story I consult other sources and thus believe I have a down the middle picture of what actually happened.

I know that I am not... I learn ed very early on in life that everything you hear and see is not always as it seems... I try to find and form my own opinions. The media serves it's purpose as do many public conveniences... but we each have to make up our own minds. And should!

im not, because i listen to great political minds on the radio and Fox News on tv. they are coming out with a business channel that will grab the highest cable ratings for any business programing on cable also.
if u are still watching dan rather with fake faxes trying to make up stories or any of the mainstream media u will stay ignorant forever.

I love fox, it makes me so happy and I cant stop watching it all the time because it shows we are winning and that is a good thing cause republicans are better why we love ourselves and money for unknown reasons even though I have a dog that licks me raw everyday and I have to go now because cavuto is on and he's my favorite.

I don't watch FOX News, so I am not being manipulated by their version of mainstream media (more aptly called right-wing propaganda and rhetoric).
