    Yeah, because they weren't at all biased, flawed and/or populist back then.

    OT.
    The Daily Show is made of pure win. 'Nuff said.

    I didn't make a point, but an assertion. And there is little substantive Americans are complaining about. I mean what did Eisenhower tax?

    Not only that, but they can protest for so much more, that's really my gripe, is that Americans aren't protesting enough... that they have don't have much clue what they're protesting for would be forgivable then.

    Yeah that's pretty funny. It's kind of insane how much the media is turning this, and how the media outlets themselves have spun themselves into opposite places.

    That's why I apologized pre-emptively.

    That's not what the video was about, it was about how the different media corps switched positions the minute the government changed:

    FOXnews became MPR/hippie channel.
    CNN became FOXnews
    MSNBC became "The Daily Show".

    btw: are you really American? if so - then why the heck do you have Geert Wilders as your avatar?

    Because they both hate Islam with a perplexing intensity.

    My sig is from the Moment of Zen from that same episode.

    Freaking hilarious stuff, these angry repubs.
    I have approximate answers and possible beliefs, and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don’t know anything about. But I don’t have to know an answer. I don’t feel frightened by not knowing.

    Sure I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is Im not. I honestly feel that America is the best country and all other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.
