I remember the 70's well, I was ready to go to College than. People were different. Today people are sheep. From the Farmer to the Reporter.. Maybe we should give them all a book " A Nation of sheep" but they would only burn it and say "The devil wrote it, now let go and keep praying for our Lord Bush"
It's so screwed up and so very sad

Steffie, if you're a single woman, watch out for me! I remember the 70s well and you are dead on target. I went into the news business BECAUSE of Woodward and Bernstein! Back then people knew each other and G. Gordon Liddy was my hometown's District Attorney! I knew them all even though I was a kid then.
When we found out it was Liddy we knew damned well he was guilty cause he was nuts!
Back then Woodward and Bernstein then spawned the likes of NY's ABC 7 Eyewitness News. Geraldo Rivera came out of that like a tornado kickin' ass and takin' names. That was before he became a tabloid dude. That's what's fucked up the news is the CIA and the tabloids. I left the news business because of that shit.
That's why I listen to Jeff Rense and Alex Jones. They don't give a fuck and report what the real deal is.
The Bush administration just voted Rense.com and Jones' websites as the top disinformation websites! Mind you, Jeff and Alex with all their stories NEVER ran a story about there being WMDs, but we went into two wars based on this shit from what source? The fucking State Dept! The same State Dept that accuses Rense and Jones of being disinformation! Talk about talkin' outta the side of your ass!
So glad there's someone else around who remembers when reporters had guts.
If you notice, in the past year all three top news anchormen have quit or died.
That's how strong the opposition to the truth is.
