The press is the reason we lost

It's ONE of the reasons we lost.

How do you suggest we "punish" the left-wing press?

I'm waiting to see if the Obama administration is going to re-institute the Fairness Doctrine, and if so -- if I had a far-reaching forum, I would urge every conservative worth his/her salt to cancel their subscriptions to liberal newspapers (or to stop purchasing these papers at the store).

Let's say that a newspaper's subscribers/purchasers consisted of one-third conservatives, and that all of them stopped reading their publication. These papers would be in deep financial trouble -- not only because of a severely reduced circulation, but also because their advertising would suffer.

Perhaps these newspapers' publishers --if they were made aware of the fact that it was a concerted conservative movement that was causing the problem -- could be coerced to go to the Obama/Palin/Reid government and seek an end to the enforcement of the Fairness Doctrine.

stop by my blog when you get a chance...round 1 is starting. (it's the immature phase, but more to come that is quite productive)

oh and Obama/Palin/Reid I think you meant Pelosi lol

The press is the reason. Obama wasn't ELECTED he was SELECTED. There is a difference. It is certainly at the top of the list of reasons.

A socialist society cannot exist without the media at its side. Period.

America as we know it is disintigrating. But we can save it.
