media and the money trail

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Money Trail

An analysis of federal records shows that the amount of money contributed during this election cycle by journalists favors Democrats over Republicans by a margin of 15 to one.

Investor's Business Daily reports 235 journalists have donated more than $225,000 to Democrats and just 20 journalists have given around $16,000 to Republicans.

An even greater disparity ? 20 to one ? exists between the number of journalists who have donated to Barack Obama over John McCain.

Individuals who are employed by major media organizations have given more than $315,000 to Democrats and about $23,000 to Republicans

Why would any sane person donate to a group who has put us in 9 trillion worth of debt among the fifty other rotten things they have chokes us out with? They should be happy they got that much. By the way dogs since you are following the money trail it would be nice if you followed the same message with this war. Maybe then you will recognize some of the corruption that has been right under your nose also compliments of this dirtbag in office.

 

[Hard Times]

Under Bush/Cheney the so called news is scripted so people that report this bullshit have no other choice. Report what you'er told or look for another job. I'm sure that most are ashamed of their non reporting.If you where an investigating reporter and was told that its your job on the line if you cross the line then you would donate to any political party that offered change. I'm sure they would like to gain some self respect back.I know Clinton is the cause of most of what's wrong, passing telecommunications law in 1996,news media are now monopolies with maybe 3 or 4 owners in the near future,yet still Bush and cheney have used their power to silence and control the major news outlets.OBAMA makes good news but I'll never believe he can win and if so he can't change much..I thought that Bush was the most arrogant SOB ever. Obama may be more arrogant than Bush.
