    holding the media accountable

    Great job to lay out the MSM's blind support of Bush administration. The influence of the Bush administration's ideology continues to fall and most recently with the potential collapse of the whole financial system.

    Will the MSM (main stream media) start doing their job which is to inform the public? Or will they just be good corporate citizens as part of the media empire which is what they take their job to be.

    I have heard that the journalism schools at Columbia and Harvard are working on restoring the failed profession of journalism. They will also have to overcome the media owners with their goal to keep the public dumb and to be savy consumers.
