Rec'ing this again as it is so important. Imagine if we had a real news media? Imagine how much more informed people would be and how much more difficult it would be for politicians to issue the same old platitudes knowing that most of the voting public has no clue what they are really up to?

I consider the loss of a real free press to be the most important contributer to the current state of affairs.

Great post, thank you mary.
