Role of media in our society - Global Ethics Network
WE NEED TO GROW UP AND GET PAST THIS ATTITUDE OF IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ME YOU ARE WRONG AND BAD.
No issue facing this country is so black and white that ONLY one side or the other has ALL the answers. YOU would never allow your children to think that way....why do you ?
With todays media and speed, more than ever to EVEN CONSIDER not fact checking or reading both sides, you become a merciful lamb being led to slaughter, either by the right or left depending on which media source you have sold your soul.

Subtract those on public assistance and the liberals have 10% of the population.

I can't believe Rocky believes in the "media is the sword" crap affald (are you new or someone we know in disguise?). The media AND the government are BOTH owned by rich and powerful men...media and government work together to spread propaganda and agendas.
