We don't have a fee press right here in the good 'ol US of A... What we have is a press perfectly willing to the the master's bidding...

It no surprise that Governor Blagovitch tried to get some editiorial writers fired for sayin' bad stuff about him... That what politicans think they can get away with... Why would he think that???

(Geeze, Bobert... He might have been the only politican who ever tried to use his power to influnece the press??? Ya' ever think about that???)

Well, yeah, right after I bought that "bridge to nowhere"...

I mean, lets get real... The governemnt does influence the press.... What story wazs it that the Bush administration pushed the New York Times around over??? IT will come to me...

But closer to home... Right after 9/11 the Bush administration scared the heck outta the Washington Post so bad that Post just went ahead an reported what the Bushite's wanted... I mean, day after day, week after week... Then a year and half later (on page A-17) the Washington Post printed a story which admitted to having not doen the hard work on questioning the Bush run-up-to-war... The Post said that it had fallen into a "culture"...

What the Hell does "culture" mean???

So I wrote the Post and asked them what they had done to correct a situation where they could be swept into a "culture" again... That was 4 years ago and I'm still waiting for their answer...

Then we read that part of the money for the Iraq war goes into paying writers in Iraq to write and publish propaganda???

Like what's that all about???

LIke I said, there ain't no free press... That is a mirage... A complete fairy tale...

Don't Bogart that joint, my friend... Pass it over to me...
