Media war is necessary in this age of rapid communication--- What amazes me is that so many keep swallowing the same BS when all the facts fly in the face of the Media...

The Media is pretty high on itself most of the time--- A few years ago when our Prime Minister was leaving . they had found a female replacement.. Kim Campbell--- Every newspaper here had her face splashed all over the front pages for weeks--- She was going to lead the same party that the retiring PM was leading who had a large majority in the previous election. Anybody with half of a brain could feel the pressure to elect her and the party ...This party had been in Canada for at least 100 years--- our equivalent of the Republicans---

Not only did they not elect her in her own riding , the whole party only ended up with 2 seats from a majority in the previous election...
a total devastation --- The lesson I think was for the money controlled media, however I don't think they learned anything....

I guess what I am trying to say is that if what we are doing in Kosovo was put to a meaningfull vote where people might lose their kids over it , it would be overwhelmingly defeated even with all the Media horseshit....
