Rock_nj,

Re: Since when do anchors take ardent political positions on the air?

Since "air" began. Patriotic messages were a commonplace on radio in its infancy. Same thing with TV.

Only now, it has gotten entirely more blatant, and more partisan.

It used to be that the message of fascism was the domain of certain types like Father Coughlin in the 1930s, whose program was very well received by millions of Americans. Today, the messages of fascism and Christianity, and the combination of the two are ubiquitous across the country.

It is a sad testimonial to the utter derision that most citizens hold democracy in.

If a vote were taken today, this nation would lose its Bill of Rights to the cussedly irrational and irresponsible rule of the mob.
