New Media tail wags mainstream dog

NEW YORK – Assorted pundits enjoy quadrennial denunciations of the Democratic and Republican National Conventions – because they no longer provide any suspense and extended balloting for who will be the nominee.
But these are the only national gatherings of elected leaders and delegates of our two major political parties. And they are also the only times that all of our nation's media come together.
For many of this country's left-wing-dominated Big Media, there is an acute and often apparent discomfort in being under the same roof and in the same convention sections as "The Rest of Us" – including what might be described as The New Media Thrust.
This includes those like Washington's new Weekly Standard magazine – which is distributed daily at this convention and which featured a report headlined:
HOW THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA WERE FORCED TO COVER A STORY THEY HATED.
That story, on the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and how they exposed Sen. John Kerry, is, along with the same-sex marriage issue, one of the two hottest issues of this presidential campaign.

| I really hope that the legacy of the swift boat movement, will be looked on in the future, as the down fall of the MSM as we know it. The MSM are obsolite and do not know it yet. I believe that the major networks may even get out of the "news" ( at least the nightly news) business soon. Not only will the swifty's have saved our country from kerry. If they distroy the MSM they will have done an even greater service for our freedom. |
