I used to work for a of couple newspapers, the New York Times and then the Oakland Tribune. While working on the Tribune we printed the San Mateo times, a liberal paper, and the Fremont Argus, a really conservative paper.

Well it was all the same stories, but the placement of the stories really varied and it's plain to see how they sculpt the news for the point of view of the editors. I'm still a news junkie, and I check cnn, msnbc and fox all the time.

I can't say as I like any of them, Fox is just so much republican talking points over and over, I must admit I've developed a bitter hatred for them. As far the others they could easily make the shit list too. Thank god for NPR.

I think your posts bring up good discussion, I have no idea what CNN is thinking banning you.

Self employment is the way to happiness and you were never going to get rich from working anyway. Overgrow the world.
