You would think we are all going to hell in a hand basket listening to the news. Every time we get close to an election the media makes it look as though the world is ending and only their favorite candidate can save us all.

They only do that when Repubs are in power to make everyone feel bad. Don't worry, soon maybe the Dems will get back in power and we will all be happy. No terrorists, no huricanes, no poverty, no unemployment, great economy, no bridges falling, no dumb kids in schools, no poor people, no one without healthcare, no global warming. All the news will be good things again and everyone will love us again.
Of course we will not have jobs and can't afford houses anymore, but who cares, we are happy and everything is great just like it was during the 40 years they ruled last time. We can get by with unemployment at 6-7%, interest rates at 10%, Gas lines, Inflation, more freebies. More government. Remember those good old days?

The drive by media only will do this with things like global warming and not Islam as they know they will lose seeing they do not have a spine.
So they must get the left worked up in caring ways.
SUV kills man. SUV drives in to people on side walk.
makes you think the SUV have taken over the world.
Or Bush will not hug Hugo, or Bush let scooter go, Bush lied and so on.
But not that Islam and Obama bin laden Osama brother are wanting our heads.
And we need to keep the fight on them and win it and yes that means throwing the Koran down the toilet. So bad is it. Well better than a head cut off.
We are the greatest country and we will not cave in like the left.

Don't worry about the media so much because their ratings have been strinking and continues to do so.
People are wising up and are beginning to go to alternative places for their news source.
The real thing you need to start worrying about is Diebold.
I find these machine malfunctions right before the release of the vote counts awful fishy.
And we can't turn that off like a TV.

Yep, Media "Please choose the lesser of the TWO evils" and we sometime do and sometime we choose the most evil. I say if a person wants to run for office of president he/she had to have work out in the heat in construction for 12 months, behind a desk in a cubical for 12 months, has been poor or working poor and without health insurance at least 12 months, owes $25000.00 in student loans and is behind. We need to stop electing spoiled rotten rich people that know nothing first hand what the poor, working poor & almost middle class go through, we need an American President with not ties to England.

I'm not worried. I quit watching CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, and CNN a long time ago. They are all hard left leaning Liberal and they twist every story. I only watch FOX. The same for newspapers. I haven't bought a New York Times in years. I cancelled my subscriptions to Time and Newsweek. They are just all too left of center for me.

I'm afraid the media has a new program director, with the power of life and death in the balances. They no longer need to make it seem as if the world is ending. God is doing that task for them. We are in tribulation with an abscence of rapture.

In my opinion the media became a non entity in my decision process long long ago. So no I am not worried. I am however a little concerned about those who still give the media any credibility.

I watch quite a lot of news; abc, nbc, cbs, cnn. I always go back to Fox News channel, it's balanced, fair non bias. Just what the liberals hate. If you like making decisions on your own watch Fox, you'll feel better.

Remember the only way the media can justify their existence is to report twisted truths. but they are protected from fault by the constitution. Crock of Crap if you ask me. I ignore the media because I know that 90% of what is reported is formed around their needs.
