lets bash some media for being blatantly biased or untruthful. any country anywhere.

my 2 winners are al jazeera and fox news

:3

and just to please plotter, is media doing its part at controlling the government?

i would also like, at this point, to note that paparazzi should be set on fire, journalism that directly invades privacy of individuals is quite sad and should be limited to an almost standstill

corporations and their dealings? fine. individuals while at their house of stalking them through a carpark? not so good.

also, i think tabloids should burn as well. the sensationalism may get the money, but the public remain uninformed about the truth.

let the media bashing commence?

Also according to FOX, anybody who swears is a sinner, and naked people are the worst thing ever. Not Hitler. But Playboy.

To respond to ducky's question that pleases me :P

The media is kinda controlling the government and being the mouthpiece for it (Minus Fox, Talk Radio, and Lou Dobbs). But people are starting a backlash against the media, and thats alot due to the fact the media is praising Obama like the 14th of February even though Obama's approval ratings are sliding while his disapproval rating is climbing.

In Canada it's worse, the Media here (Minus Talk Radio) is making false claims about the government and when they realise it's false, THEY CONTINUE LYING TO CANADIANS, Including Pravda(CBC), which is Government owned.

Just as a note, It is ILLEGAL in Quebec to say anything positive about the Conservatives.

Stupid Media, in Alegeasia, we dont have media! Only a dark king which must be thrown over.


But it saddens me that the Media restricts the free speech of the citizens of this "Canada"

No, i dislike all biased news. Whether it is liberal or conservative. The medias job is to report the news, not how they see the news. If McCain had won the election, FOX wouldve been ecstatic. It should not be like that. They report the news, then they go away. That is my idea

but being biased draws in revenue from selective advertising.

i prefer the opposite, a wide array of news each with their own bias and the bias is usually dictated by the peoples bias. there are some right wing people, there are some right wing TV, there are a lot of right wing people, there are many right wing TV news.

it hsould balance out and suit the populus.
