any more questions on the 'neutrality' of the media? - nope. that says it all!
i can't even tell how much that frustrates me. and i wanted to become a journalist for quite some time...until i had several practical trainings and experience told me that this would be like throwing a seal into a pool of sharks...
no need to mention where my sociophobia results from, aye? and that my career aspirations changed: to becoming an animal keeper... laughs
My eyes started blurring up so much I have to make several trips back to read this one. And again, thank you for the time to post info like this MDC.
Kayoz,
It is just so amazing because people don't realize how much these companies control. They have so much unseen influence.

This is why I'm totally against media consolidation. Why is it okay to have a few companies controlling most, if not all, of the media outlets?
It's high time I find a new career...
