5. Then the first step, logically, is to take out the media
first, we should stop calling them "the media". That's a minomer. It reduces the sense of responsibility that they have. It also distances them, linguistically, from that 'free press' part of the constitution. We need to call them THE PRESS. Media is the manner of delivery: cd, album, paper, tv, radio.

second, we need to put them out of business. Force them to be accountable.

I see our battle as needing to go after two things DIRECTLY:

1. the press.
2. the corporations.

And to stop pandering and whining and crying to the Congress. They are all whores in DC. They are polluted beyond repair. Take away the govt's megaphone and take away the govts funding. These politicians have only ONE goal: to stay in office and reap all those benefits.
