Sorry, but we wont let rightwing propaganda artists try to tear down our great media institutions. If you want facts, you still have to go to mainstream media with strong journalistic ethics. Even if they're not perfect they're the best in the world.

The reason the rightwing doesn't like them is that they expose the truth. But lately the mainstream media has been getting duped a lot by the rightwing. Like on Iraq.

If it were up to the rightwing we wouldn't even have a free press, just mouthpieces for extreme rightwing special interests policies like Hannity. Look at how Hannity and Limbaugh tried to sell Saddam's WMD's threat for instance, and told us Iraqi oil would pay for the entire war. Remember the Kerry sex scandal they tried to sell us. All 100% false.

Not a single WMD and not a single dime of Iraqi oil. Plus no Kerry sex scandal. Even the NY Times got suckered into backing Bushie lies. We all did to an extent. But never again. The rightwing needs to clean house and start getting honest. Quit foisting Nazi-style propaganda on us and calling it "news".
