I find news media to be excessively disappointing. CNN is one example. You can watch CNN all day long and barely get any news. Then the weekend comes and they repeat it. US media is so poor in it's world coverage, it makes you want to cry. If significant news occurs and the US isn't involved. Forget it, you're not going to hear it on CNN. You'll get plenty on the Duke alleged rape case. Foreign news not involving the US has to be catostrophic to make it to the US. The Indonesian tsunami, the earthquake in Pakistan. And even then, a Lacy Peterson story gets more coverage than 100,000 people wiped out of existance in Indonesia. Of course the news media aids the Administration in lying. I don't think it's intentional, they're just lazy. Colbert was dead on. The President is the decider. The White House Press secretary says what the President decided and the press "types". End of story. jttmab
