[Vision2020] News From the Left

Thu Feb 10 18:01:52 PST 2011

You should be asking Ms. Lund. She suggested that Current was a solution to some complaint heard only in the cob web wrapped confines of her imagination.

As for me, I accept the media for what it is and by that I mean by and large liberal. My only complaint, if I had any, would be when folks try to make out as though FOX were a direct extension of the Republican party and all the other news organizations were the embodiment of even handed, unbiased reportage. 

As far as a solution for MSNBC and Mr. Olbermann is concerned, it has been found and implemented to my immense satisfaction with no involvement or input on my part required.

What do you mean by "the solution to a 'lame stream' media that has a decided leftward bias"?

What do you mean by "solution"?  I'm seriously confused.  Is everything but Fox News left-wing and we need some sort of "solution" for that?  Or are you just saying that we need some sort of "solution" for MSNBC and/or Keith Olbermann?  Please elaborate clearly.

  The "irony" is that you imagine that the solution to a "lame stream" media
  that has a decided leftward bias is yet another media outlet with a lefty
  slant. Providing a refuge for Olbermann as the company's chief news officer
  is not too likely to make Current into anything other than an updated
  version of MSNBC/CNN with even less journalistic objectivity or integrity.

  That said, as long as the enterprise is privately funded they are fine by me
  and I am fairly sure that you would have a remarkably difficult time
  pointing to anything I might have said in the previous postings that would
  indicate anything other than the plain and simple fact that their viewership
  numbers are low.

  When it comes to minds both narrow and simple, I would have to think that
  they would best be typified by those who work themselves into a frenzied
  snit over things they only imagine having been said.
