    Media Truth

    It is extremely refreshing to read about Mr. Olbermann and his views concerning the news and this administration. I only disagree with Mr. Olbermann on one key point. Mr. Olbermann, there are issues that have not yet received proper coverage in the news in much longer than four days. The value of re-visiting such issues should in fact have the power to be resurrected,addressed, and broadcasted for the public good.

    It's too bad there are so few media outlets in the U.S. that allow news people with divergent views from this administration to have equal time to simply report the facts. The news as a liberal entity hasn't existed freely for quite some time and it's time to truly have sources, and the emphasis here is on "sources", for balanced and information packed reporting of the news.
