Re: The Kerry win was not a vote for Kerry, so much as a vote against Bush from a solidly aligned electorate.

Nonsense, if the election results proved anything, it proved to the media moguls like Murdock, Redstone, Immelt and Eisner that they can twist public opinion any way they chose and that the public is a flaccid, vacuous and vapid reflection of what it was 60 years ago. The public today is so dimmed-down, empty-headed and easily misled that the corporate chieftains are laughing all the way to the bank.

Let's look at reality. From mid-November and into early December, Howard Dean was campaigning on a policy plank of reversing media concentration and monopoly in America. Bad move. The net result was that 80% of the media coverage on Dean became negative after December 1. And why? Because the billionaires who run our disgusting media felt that their opportunities to earn an extra few billion were being threatened by the truth.

So they started a vicious campaign which was completely unrelenting.

All because they need to destroy Howard Dean in order to retain their ranking on the Forbes 400 list.

Is this sick, or what?
