I insist that you stop with this fair minded, unbiased and informative journalism!!

It’s so last century, you must promote an opinion that has nothing to do with any facts, or any measure of resonableness.

Actually, the mainstream media constantly congratulates itself for its mediocrity by pointing out that both the left and the right complain about them so they must be doing something right when really, all they are doing is providing stenography to the left and the right and not really doing much in the way of factual reporting at all.

For example, rather than reporting that Sen. A says tax proposal D will cost taxpayers one amount and Sen. B says it will cost y amount, it is actually possible to determine who is telling the truth, but no reporter seems willing to do the work.

The mainstream media in the US assumes that the middle is the course of wisdom, but sometimes the middle is just a muddle. Take the issue of global warming, the compromise position between do nothing and take action to reduce carbon omissions is just more of the same personal conservation while industry and the unconcerned consume as madly as ever. As Jim Hightower once said, “the only thing in the middle of the road is yellow stripes and dead armadillos.”

This post is leftist garbage! Or maybe rightist garbage! Or uppish! The reasonable, moderate position you present in this article infuriates me!

… Sorry, couldn’t help myself.
