Terrifying. Talk about lack of accountability and variety.

From the page: "In 1983, 50 corporations controlled the vast majority of all news media in the U.S. At the time, Ben Bagdikian was called "alarmist" for pointing this out in his book, The Media Monopoly. In his 4th edition, published in 1992, he wrote "in the U.S., fewer than two dozen of these extraordinary creatures own and operate 90% of the mass media" -- controlling almost all of America's newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations, books, records, movies, videos, wire services and photo agencies. He predicted then that eventually this number would fall to about half a dozen companies. This was greeted with skepticism at the time. When the 6th edition of The Media Monopoly was published in 2000, the number had fallen to six. Since then, there have been more mergers and the scope has expanded to include new media like the Internet market. More than 1 in 4 Internet users in the U.S. now log in with AOL Time-Warner, the world's largest media corporation."

How *could* you trust the MSM?

of course, does anyone realize controlling our country and lives is as easy as flooding each primary with your bought candidates, having them hold a variety of issues to cover the whole political spectrum on both sides, then each party's bought candidates throwing their primary votes to the chosen candidate if there isn't a simple majority winner? Build an alliance of military-industrial corporations to form a domineering silent megainterest group, and you get what most intelligent, unblinded people suspect is happening today. It's not about the people anymore. The federal government is bought, and has been bought since the founding of this nation. It was just as bad now as when the Federalist party was in power. We need not only separation of church and state, but SEPARATION OF STATE AND MONEY. To hell with the federal reserve and to hell with any governmental bureaucrat who takes power for his own monetary gain. Why does it always have to be between the rich and the poor? Why must the rich get richer and the poor get poorer?
