In 1913 when the international bankers gained control of our money system via the Federal Reserve, one of the first things they did was to start buying up all the media. It took a while. First they had to separate dollars from gold. That gave them unlimited funds because they have the printing press.
Main stream media (MSN) is now owned by 5 mega corporations, all intertwined and under control of the international bankers that own the Federal Reserve. They have the public fooled into believing MSN is about money. It is not about money; it is about control. It doesn't matter if MSN loses money because their owners have the printing press.
Witness the comments on this page. The general public is too stupid to understand what is happening. They refuse to even look at the truth, because MSN tells them too. Most Democrats and Republicans and so called liberal and conservative media is just a shell game to fool the public. They differ on hot button issues but on things that matter to the international bankers they speak and vote as one voice.
It matter not if Hillary, Obama, Ruddy, Romney, McCain, Edwards, or any of their darlings win, because they have all sold out and will do the bidding of the international bankers.
Only Ron Paul is not under their control. That is why they are doing everything possible from ignoring to vilifying him with lies and misrepresentations to keep him from winning.

Folks in the media have their own preferences, but they keep their eye on the ball: their job is to make the race look like a race, so that people will carefully watch their punditry.
Hillary is the most hated woman in America. She is the one candidate that the GOP is hoping to run against, because they don't have any candidates that will excite Republicans, but if they are running against Hillary, every Republican will show up, and so they will get all their representatives and senators elected.
Barack is the kind of fella we really need in public service. He is nice, intelligent, apparently he is honest, and he seems to be able to think for himself. Unfortunately, he needs some seasoning. But he's exciting and new, so the media is propping him up, because it looks like an interesting race.
Edwards is probably the most electable Democrat. If he picks administration members like he picks wives, he could be a great president; she is a firecracker, for sure. But as a white man, he looks too much like a Republican candidate, and the last thing the networks want is a tweedledum/tweedledee race.
There's not a single candidate on the GOP side that Barry Goldwater or Bob Taft would consider a Republican.
Ron Paul seems to be highly popular online, but the networks ignore him. Maybe they don't realize that ballots are free, and they're one to a customer. Seems like the candidate that has the most people behind him would be the front-runner, wouldn't it? But that doesn't make exciting news coverage.
Biases aren't bad, as long as you know what they are; it's like a clock that's always 5 minutes behind. As long as it's consistant, you always know what time it is. So be careful when you complain about bias....

Of course there are hidden interests because the sheeple laps up everything MSM feeds them without turing a blind eye.
Hidden in plain view!
Areas such as the NAU (that Dou Dobbs will only talk about).
The MSM is only promoting candiates that support open borders, NAU, NAFTA and the New World Order (these things will destroy America, but will put millions in their pockets).
There's more candidates out there people that they don't want you to know about (such as Ron Paul, Mike Gravel and a few more).
It's time to turn your TV off folks and turn on the internet!!
DON'T LET THE MEDIA DECIDE FOR YOU!!!

Well, its nothing new, but now, with youtube and on, they want to make us believed that the fight is cleaner, and not manipulated... Well Internet has increase freedom of minds but also as well limited the contest to emotional reactions, that look more ''democratic'' while in fact most peoples have already been manipulated and brainwashed... Anyways, I guess we are heading toward a Idiocracy faster than I ever expect! Media are losing steams but buying internet firms all over again, like they have done by consolidating the traditional medias a while ago.

How is Vaughn an idiot? What she said makes perfect sense.
Thumbs up Vaughn!
I agree with the premise of the question though. It does *seem* that the media has already selected Hillary as the winner.

You lose some credibility when you call CBS, NBC and ABC right wing. As for the conservative push for Hillary, that is easy. She, like John Kerry in 2004, is a very beatable candidate. There is a large percentage of people who will never vote for her and if the Republicans field a good candidate it could boost Republican voter turnout..........

Big Business funds candidates, they choose who can run and who cant afford to.
You can look at it two ways.
1. Media is Big Business, so they of course support the candidates that are best for Business.
2. Entirely money motivated-you cant deny theyre in it for the cash. The ones that Big Business chooses always have the most money to throw around.

Welcome to America, where everything is biased against something! Where have you been, hiding under a rock? If you don't want to go for anyone the media pushes, write yourself in.....they are all a bunch of cronies who won't do anything they say once they've gotten in office anyway. Your tax dollars hard at work!

I don't agree that the media is pushing their own agendas; I believe their main agenda is to win over viewers and make money. The "red flag" there, however, is that they're going to give attention to the most controversial candidates, as opposed to the most centrist, even-keel candidates. The controversial ones are more "entertaining." And does our country need entertaining leaders, or do we need competent leaders?

Actually, the media are pushing the candidates that are buying advertising from them.
Yes, the media is biased -- biased in favor of money.
It's not a hidden interest -- it's pretty blatant.
