The Main Stream Media's March Toward Irrelevance

[ozzmdj]

This, in a nutshell, is the essence of bias, the terminal diagnosis of today's Main Stream Media, from which it unremittingly slouches towards a self-inflicted demise. If you listen carefully, you may even hear its last gasps as it -- slowly but surely -- dissolves into oblivion......

Really? Ozz does have a valid point. Even the last election proved that in so many ways, the biggest being that more people got their info on the candidates from Youtube than anywhere.

What's funny is that the MSM's main target has always been whites. Now that whites are disappearing from the earth, there's nobody to subscribe to their liberal lies. What a pity.

I don't know if it is on life support yet but the MSM is certainly facing that good old American value of diversity and choice. My concerns are that the MSM still had a stronghold on the short attention spans of the lazy voter. The one who literally only pays attention to anything political a week or less before and election and takes his/her cues from the soundbyte talking heads.

Everything that cannot be covered by the internet is dying, some things are just being held up by bailouts and bullshit like that. Mail, media, etc. is outdated. At least the environuts should be happy with this, since it saves trees.

What a shame. This thread started ostensibly as a comment of the decline of mainstream media in general, but has now become a dick sucking session.
