There’re still plenty of them but you have to turn to weekly or monthly magazines to see them. It takes time to develop a story and all the background rightly. The daily’s have to publish what they have as soon as they have it or sales go to the ones who beat them to the punch.

Consider how many articles you read in dead tree reporting (aka newspapers) two days after reading them on Northescambia.com. They seem old and boring even though they MAY have some information not even William managed to get in at the first.
(He makes up for that with updates but by that time nobody‘s reading the article anymore.)

Time, Newsweek and probably National Review would give you the kind of journalism you profess to prefer. I let my Newsweek subscription expire several years ago, though, so I don’t know for certain they are still on top of such things.

I suggest you look at who controls the news media and their agenda. It is no longer about reporting the news, but shaping public opinion. The same applies to television and films, there is a social programming message, accept this, tolerate that.

It will be interesting, as always, to see how history and Americas economic STANDOFF with anarchy plays out. Will the ringmaster be Romney or Obama?

I listen to her nearly every day for a bit anyway, but have noticed there are some basic assumptions she starts from which are not neutral. I don’t even fault her for lack of neutrality since interim judgement is reasonable, but there are times when it’s quite obvious.

My radio’s prime setting is 88.1 FM because, in general, they do a good job and don’t watch any news show regularly since there are still plenty of sit-coms and NCIS reruns to view, but there is a snobbery of those who accuse all who disagree with them of being Fox News brainwashed. If they watch it, they chose to watch it. If we don’t watch it, it is because we chose to not watch it.

There is a bumper sticker which says something like I HAVE AN NPR MIND IN A FOX NEWS WORLD. That implies all of us who listen to NPR are superior to all those who listen to FOX NEWS.

Most don’t listen to or watch either one. Further, the elitist attitude makes persuasive arguments less likely. They certainly won’t win friends and influence people by attacking sources rather than false ideas. Maybe they figure they CAN’T justify oppositon based simply on reason and MUST attack the assumed source.

Me not know.
Me not care.

So you are blaming President Obama’s lack of progress in the 3 1/2 years he’s had in office with one failed attempt after another to rectify “issues” on the Bush administration? I’m not. Every presidency has problems, but Obama’s has been one failure after another. It doesn’t take a genius to see that four more years of this guy will kill America, not just bankrupt it.

For the record, I have NEVER been unemployed since I started working as a full time adult in 1984. In fact, I held two jobs or more at a time and I hold two jobs now. That speaks for itself, I think. Middle class people looking for jobs can find them if they are willing to take something they may not like and work into something they do. I’m not saying there is not an unemployment problem – there is. But, people can do better if they truly want to and are willing to sacrifice to get there. I did and it worked for me. Unemployment being high is just another campaign promise made by Obama that has not been fulfulled. We are just more in debt because he throws my tax dollars at the problem too. Working adult = Taxpayer.

Fox news is conservative, but they also do the research. If the truth hurts, oh well! Don’t knock Fox for beating the competition fair and square just because you don’t like what they have to say. It’s the unvarnished truth most o the time. I’ve seen the other cable news stations put out bald faced lies and trash – in other words, sensationalizing things before checking the facts. Fox gets my vote every time!
