The evolution of news

Check this out. Takes 8 minutes. Very scary. Very cool.

Looks like an advertisement for the Times. If they had mentioned the "Lyberal Hacks" that write and publish the Bias crap we read now, being lined up befor firing squads I would be on board today.

Yeah, the destruction of the NY Times is not going to be entirely due to any new technology. More and more people are getting their news from cable news networks and traditional and satellite radio... They're simply tired of the monopolistic bias.

Ahh!! Right on! papers, cable networks, and news networks now MAKE the news, as opposed to report it. They go way to far to report one side of a story, and neglect to mention the other side. This also applies to cable networks. They can MAKE you think/believe something. It's kinda sad.
