Quote:I get where you are coming from however the tenants of our government allow that our media should be exposing this kind of corruption.  The crime to me is that the 4th tenant of government has sold out for one of the other three in situation.  ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC should have been exposing this information but they are backing candidates.  Had any of them been doing their job Assange would even be part of this discussion which to me is the discussion.

 

When corporations own networks and consolidate thier power, and news is deregulated so that it is driven by profit (it wasn't always this way), you get what we have here.

 

You can hate the media.  But it's driven by a profit motive and corporations.  Something conservatives are never going to want to fix.

 

Now, with that said, I'm ambivalent to wiki-leaks.  To me, and I think the vast majority of Americans, the "revelations" about Hillary are non-issues.  I mean, please, if I missed something, let me know.  But the news that's come out now is nothing that we don't already know about Hillary and her moderate conservative position on the economy and free trade.
