About Me

Who are we??? We are the liberal media... maybe you've heard of us? I'm sure you've heard overweight, drug addicted, draft dodging radio talk show hosts rant and rave about our existence... We're pretty sure you've heard crooked, indicted felons masquerading as political leaders complain that we're "hurting America"... but who are we? No, more importantly, where are we? ............................................................ ............................................................ .......... The sad truth of the matter is that Disney, Viacom, Time Warner, News Corp (owned by Rupert Murdoch--a real nasty right wing son of a bitch), Bertelsmenn, and General Electric own 90% of the media market. Count 'em... that's 6 corporations who own 90% of everything you watch, read and listen to. And one can be most assured that these corporations have nothing to do with liberalism. ............................................................ ............................................................ ..........For the last 6 1/2 years, all three branches of our government have been controlled by the Republican Party. What has this led us to? Two wars, errosion of the constitutional principles upon which this great nation was founded, and by the time this President ends his second term he will have taken the national debt that has been accumulated over the entire life of our country... AND DOUBLED IT. ............................................................ ............................................................ ..........So where has this supposed "liberal media" been to refute and question the failed policies of neo-conservatism? To do our part to fill the void left by a lazy media beholden to their corporate owners, WE have become the media. We must be the media, YOU must be the media. Educate yourselves, educate each other... Question everthing, including us... spread the word. And in the words of Gandhi, "Be the change you wish to see in the world."..................................................... ............................................................ ................. The American Heritage Dictionary defines "liberal" as: a.) Not limited to or by established, traditional, orthodox, or authoritarian attitudes, views, or dogmas; free from bigotry. b.) Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded. Are we LIBERAL??? ...HELL YES WE ARE!!!.. width="425" height="350" ..

I'd like to meet:

"The Liberal Media" is an underground newsletter written by progressive college students for anyone who insists that the news be told truthfully, honestly, and without influence of corporate funding or governemntal regulation. The Liberal media exercises and utilizes the first amendment to its fullest extent, a patriotic duty which sadly many Americans have neglected. Of course, we are inclined to our distinctions and ideals, however, we strive to provide news and commentary that is trustworthy, intellectually stimualting and entertaining -- the mediocre, yellow (chicken-shit) journalism provided by the main stream corporate media will not be found here. ............................................................ ............................................................ .......... We would love to hear from and have the opportunity to meet intelligent minds who are not afraid to stand up for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness... If you enjoy what you read, please feel free to comment, message, or email the authors at [email protected].

Music:

We dig music, we're not naming names... awh, shit... I'm really into Muse right now, check 'em out.

Movies:

Fahrenheit 911, Loose Change, Ghandi, Born on the Foruth of July, Bloody Sunday, V For Vendetta, all Quentin Tarantino films kick major ass!

Television:

We at "The Liberal Media" strongly encourage everyone to get their news from a wide variety of sources... almost NEVER television. Read newspapers, blogs, and independent and international media. The basic networks will report the "official story" for you, but to find the TRUTH you need to look beyond that.......... To sum up the day's news with a few laughs there's The Daily Show with John Stewart & The Colbert Report. And to relax and forget about how crappy our current administration is, on Sunday's @ 8:00 is "The West Wing" on NBC.

Books:

The Secret, 1984, Trails, Everlutionary, The Four Agreements, Animal Farm, Born on the Fourth of July

Heroes:

We heart people who stand up to fight for the greater good... Ghandi, Rajeev Kasat, the creators of "Loose Change", Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, YOU!!!
