Press surveys are crap anyway.

Just a bunch of whiners who would risk national security for a breaking story.  :chair

 

Who needs a free press, the government will tell us what we need to know, when we need to know it. No danger of risking national security. The Soviets had that one right with TAAS, the national news organization. Their citizens where very well informed. And it was unbiased and accurate. Exactly what the government did, because it came from the government. What could be more accurate?

The US Media ALWAYS whines.

 

There are times where people should MTOB, you know.

 

The US media is lazy...too lazy to do any real investigative journalism which is why we get the White House press releases given almost verbatim -- you know the talking heads have to hate it when some journalist (say Seymour Hersch, etc. etc.) actually makes them do their f***ing job of being the 4th estate.
