I loved this paragraph from the article: Mr. Kerry, who has called for Senate hearings on "the future of journalism" to begin May 6, also cited the negative influence of "agenda-driven reporting" and media conglomerates.
The agenda-driven reporting is a lot of the reason that journalism is in trouble and validly so. All too many of them have lost site of their function which is to report the news. The editorial page is there if they want to push their agenda. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/apr/22/kerry-aims-to-rescue-newspaper-industry/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
