    They don’t want to offend the kill-billies who may buy their papers before going out and shooting people in a Wal-Mart. I want to offend them, though! They very much deserve it!

    Too many outlets are so overzealous about appearing “neutral” that they choose not to be objective.

      Objectivity is overrated. “I think this is bad because of this reason. Also, here are my credentials as a scholar of the bad thing” is subjective, but a lot more informative that a dry recitations of objective facts I can’t place in a context.

    This is what happens when you have two massive parties with two massive media empires. Consolidation, centralisation, manipulation, divide and conquer, embrace, expand, extinguish, etc.

    The system is gamed, and so is massive media. Support independent, objective journalism with no agenda.
