Re: "After all your carping about individuals who own newspapers ..." Just the opposite, Chuck, (with the exception of Rupert Murdoch). My beef is with the for-profit mega-corporations that control the vast majority of American media today. The scrappy, independent radio or newspaper owner-operator is a rare bird indeed to find anymore. He's on the endangered species list. Interesting story in the WSJ a week ago about how radio chains are fooling people in out-of-the-way places. Kids knock on the door of their local rock radio station only to find out the DJ who's reading the local weather is based in L.A. Bill Moyers has consistently been a quality journalist over the years.
