They care about making money.</p><p>I heard a speech by JFK somewhere about how the media is the only private business explicitly mentioned in the constitution and how they have utterly failed in holding their responsibility. I can't comment on whether or not I agree with that without causing a huge debate about capitalism. However, it is worth noting that most citizens are informed by the media. And the media stopped caring about real politics a long time ago.</p>DaveWed, 10 Sep 2008 00:02:41 -0000
