Here’s An Idea, The Journalists/Reporters Should Fact-Check Themselves Before They Speak/Write

I am so tired of the American Idolization of the US Presidency, but it just continues.  The media sets up their reporters and journalists that keep gnawing away at the edges of my brain like rabid rats. The Democrats running that actually had platforms the people could get behind, were shut out and shut up by the media.

Now, we’re back to the “it’s all about money” or the buying of the US Presidency. And I wonder if they realize just how much money it cost candidates to counter the lies the media tells, and then continues to tell. Like CNN on John Edward’s hair cuts.

John Edwards, who was getting haircuts worth more than my entire head, was supposed to pound his opponents with money. Gone.

Look at the legs the Edward’s haircuts got, something that he had paid back his campaign when the bill for the haircuts was sent to the campaign in error. How many people know this??? The bigger question is why are so-called reporters still spreading this shit???

I seriously can’t believe that this lie is still being told, and this is just one way the media controls our elections. Many of us realize that it is, and has been the media that has determined the presidential candidates for a long time.

The truth is, I believe money really does matter in presidential races; and in the protracted battle the Dems are now waging, Obama’s extra monetary muscle surely won’t hurt.

Well, yeah, when you (the media) pick up and spread lies and half-truths, people start to believe that shit, without checking to see if it’s true. Candidates have to spend hundred’s of thousands of dollars to counter the lies and half-truths with the truth, if they can successfully get out the truth. So, we have these giant media outlets, driving the spending by candidates, another way that media owners have dictated elections.

here’s a novel idea. Start checking your facts before you open your mouths or putting ink to paper. And, in the end, it is only the people can demand all media outlets fact-check themselves, station by station.
