I upvote as I love these guys... I don't necessarily agree with the conclusion of this video, but the general points are sensible.

Bullshit conclusion (that right wing media exist because there is a demand for it). But, yes, follow the money. The money behind FOX and the right wing is Corporate and Military Industrial money. These special interests are paying for FOX to vocalize their views and construct and manipulate support for their selfish corporate and military ambitions.

Sorry, Bryce, the guy's clueless.

Stopped watching when he said Couric, Williams, and Cooper were the "teeter-totter" counter-weights of Limbaugh.

Limbaugh is shoved down people's throats. Clear Channel has a definite right-wing agenda: it's pure propaganda.

Ohhhh, how the US news-mediatainment business has it's claws dug deep. The ideal of professional journalism is not in it's ability to 'show both sides'. It's the duty to tell us what's TRUE and what's FALSE!

There should be no 'Liberal Bias' or 'Conservative Bias' in news, there should be 'This is What Actually Happened and This is What It Means Bias'. News also needs to get over its hang-ups about access to power, as too often you see pathetic grovelling deference shown to politicians - even after they finally get the balls to ask a hard question.

People aren't dissatisfied that their news doesn't tell them what they wanna hear, they're dissatisfied because they know they're being LIED to... constantly. Or, in the very least, know that there's definitely more to the story than what they're being told.

Sorry Bryce? Dude, I didn't make the video. But everyone certainly is talking, which is kinda the point, right?
