[QUOTE="MC4YOU2, post: 2094010, member: 5485"] And there's plenty of blame for both sides of the liberal and conservative spectrum, and while I'm more liberal in my views I'm not blind to the fact that Obama hasn't lived up to the change he espoused in getting elected, and I respect that I'm also wrong at times and conservatives are right. The media has been equally as complicit in not holding Obama accountable as they were of Bush and Cheney. Maybe it's even more so, it's really hard to tell. It's really becoming less about that and more about who is paying the enormous salaries of the news agencies. Like Boeing being a sponsor of Meet The Press. How many planes does the average viewer purchase as a result of seeing their name as a sponsor? But, on the other hand, how many views will that same viewer take away that are say, "pro Boeing" or "anti union" without realizing the stories have been groomed to that degree? [/QUOTE]
