There is nothing, absolutely nothing, conspiratorial about the fact that ABC was set up by a CIA front company called Cap Cities (go look it up), that NBC has been owned by GE for years (one of our largest defense contractors), CBS is also owned by the same wealthy crowd (I remember a drive by some of the wealthy CBS shareholders to get Dan Rather off the air because he was too liberal). Those are all facts, go look em up. Apparently, conservatives aren't interested in facts, as we've seen with the WMD lies. I hate to break the news to you, but despite the propaganda fed to you by Rush Limbaugh and other rightwing cranks, ABC/NBC/CBS are hardly bastions of liberalism. They are in fact very much a part of the conservative wealthy establishment and perpetuate that establishment's interests every day. Sure they do an occasional expose of wrongdoing in Corporate America, but that's just for show. While the cats away the mice will play, which is exactly what happens in the mainstream American media. There is so much wrongdoing that they sweep under the rug and never report. Try reading the alternative press for a few months, you'll quickly understand what I'm talking about.
