Chris Matthews isn't? What about Alan Colmes? Al Franken? None of these losers can make it big?

If people want to actually inform themselves, they don't go to news-atainment like MSNBC, FOX, or CNN. They go to C-SPAN.

Your best news is reliable sources on the internet, filtered by websites with facts, no bias, no bs and some real comedy.

..like this forum??
Jokes apart, I agree with you. With one click, you can access a host of good websites to suit your needs (news/ sports/ commentary/ international news/ etc etc).

Despite Fox doing well in TV ratings and the right wing commentators doing well in radio ratings, the nation went the other way in elections. People must be influenced by other media too - noteably the internet.

Nope. There are only 2 reasons how Obama got elected. White liberal guilt, and the "sympathy vote" because Obama's grandma convieniently died THE NIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION.
