Mephisto,

Re: Jim Lehrer, GOP lapdog --

The key contributor to Jim Lehrer is ADM, Archer, Daniels, Midland. A regular hotbed of progressives. <gg> Then there's the Annenberg Fund, whose eponymous founder Walter Annenberg felt that Ron Reagan was dangerously to the Left. <g>

Yup, the Right Wing has captured PBS. They did so intentionally. And they did so thoroughly.

Here's a scary statistic that was brought up at the "Take Back the Media" segment of last week's Progressive's conference in Washington, D.C. Talk Radio is dominated by Right Wingers who control 350 hours of programming per week. The "other" category amounts to a grand total of 5 hours, which includes 3 hours of Alan Colmes. Talk about a rout for the Progressives. Oy vey!
