Libertarians need their own mass media!!!! (Ron Paul, house seat, party, support)

We can not rely on Fox News to push our fiscal agenda and on the rest of the liberal media to push our social agenda! we need our own place.

aren't there any networks which are struggling and nearing bankruptcy?

I'm not libertarian but... shouldn't the news be just that, without the OPED? I mean, can you hear yourself saying that news reporters are selling something (propaganda) and you don't see that as wrong, but something to compete against?

Libertarian discussion groups I'd be interested in listening for the sake of alternative views. I'd even love to hear that party's critique of the 2 party system. Invite them to the round table on sunday morning debates absolutely. Libertarian version propaganda... haven't we all had enough of that crappioca? Not libertarianism, but the propaganda part.

I agree that its the new reality since they want to be watchjed. But then nothing is stopping liberaains except the numbers which won't support such a channel. The same reason Ron Paul runs as a republiucan for his house seat.

I do agree with you that news should be news. what i'm saying is that libertarians need a mainstream news broadcaster which reports what we believe to be front page news, on the the front page!

having said all that, it's quite convenient that because you're on one of the teams which has an oped voice pushing propaganda, you don't see the need for a little competition!
