I Blame the Media

Just saying that all the editorial boards that endorsed the constitution-shredding harpercons have now renounced any right to yammer about the rule of law or any other value.

Don't think that will stop them from being a strong and independent voice for freedom and transparency!

I kid, of course. But I'm sure that on those occasions where they do poke some faint criticism at increasing government secrecy and authoritarianism, they won't stop for a moment to take any responsibility for having endorsed it in the first place.

Sixth Estate,

In some respects, they're incapable of seeing the contradiction between their professed values and their endorsement of a politician who spits on them.

That would be simpletons like Marcus Gee.

Then there are the shameless liars.

Regardless, they have nothing to teach us and no right to lecture us ever again.

Politicians and the media, are both a disgrace to their professions. The media are nothing but, propaganda machines for corrupt, deceitful governing officials, who lie and thieve from the people.

I canceled my newspapers. I couldn't get two lines read, without seeing the same old, same old politicians being praised for their latest lies, thefts and corruption.

Good for you anonymous. Why should we pay to be insulted?
