Forum Post: a crumbling pillar of democracy

the mainstream media seems to be a crumbling pillar of our democracy. Owned by major corporations with specific agendas, interests and investments on both the right and the left, how are we getting the real story? We have to search it out on our own but Americans don't like that because they want to be handed their information from their sources (that are of course in their political camp) trust it and call it a day.

the media is part of the machine not the watchdog any more. When the media elected Oboma you didn't notice their no longer "neutral" stance? did you?

The democratic republic began it's epic undermining in 1871 during that particular bankruptcy. The reorganization of that impossible to repay debt instrument, in 1933, was the kiss of death for all to follow.

Thanks Abe Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D Roosevelt. Fucking Traitors.

Well when our constitution is being used as toilet paper by those who should be representing--WE THE PEOPLE--this is what happens; the inevitable death of democracy.
