I do not suffer fools politely.

Thanks for your comments on C-SPAN and especially Washington Journal. As I say, I've been viewing it regularly for 18 months, and occasionally before then.

The program has absolutely become far more propagandistic and mendacious over that period of time.

The callers used to offer up reasonable arguments on either side of the divide. Now both sides seem to be drooling.

At the back of my mind, I can't help but think I got placed onto some sort of "blacklist" there because when I was on (on the day of the Mobilization for Global Justice, 01/29/03) I tried to direct viewers to a couple of useful and honest websites that were ripping apart the lies of the IMF and World Bank. I've subsequently sent nearly a dozen emails to the show which seemed to never make one iota of difference in the show's content, let alone being read on air.

That was probably a waste of time for me to try to educate the staff at C-SPAN, inasmuch as today the Washington Journal hosts almost act as if the Internet doesn't exist.
