Investor's Business Daily posted an editorial yesterday about the future of the alternative media (that's what you are reading right now!) under an Obama administration. It lists some of the anti-free speech actions taken by the campaign to squelch opposing ideas. The alternative media (talk radio and the internet) have played a role in recent presidential and congressional elections, and it has not been a role appreciated by the democrat party. Their lives would be easier without pesky internet people checking their facts. (Remember the Dan Rather scandel--that was uncovered due to the blog Little Green Footballs. The photoshopped pictures of the Iran rocket launchings were also exposed by the internet--I think that was Little Green Footballs, also. The phony pictures of damage to Lebanon in the war with Israel were also exposed on the internet). Factcheck.org is a poliltically neutral organization, but it exposes democrat as well as republican lies. We need a media that reports both sides of any issue, and right now the mainstream media is not doing that.
