Media

This past week in class we have been discussing the bias in the media. I.e. whether it is liberal or conservative. The group that i was in focused on the magazine portion in the news. i read the Atlantic, Harpers, and the New Yorker. iI found that they all had a slight liberal lean to them. It is also found out that the Media is liberal and neutral . Basically if the two words are combined then that is where our media is. as for the conservative stand point they are in the far right with magazines like the Weekly Standard. more next time.

Lazy

I am pretty much a week behind and I forgot because I am lazy. I just really forgot. Today i am posting for last week. i was watching the Vice President debates and then I like every other American whose only watches half of the debate listens to the news in the morning. well that is what i did and let me just say something, I am really tried of hearing about Palin as some kind of bad mom, sex symbol, and being the saint from all saints. i believe that neither candidate has put a clear effective plan together on health care and economics. the only reall good thing i have heard is that They want ro stop giving money to countries that dont support our view points. we needed to stopo this years ago. As for health care i do not believe we should be on our own that governemnt that we pay into shoudl help out, but i disagree with putting a cap on costs for the medical professionals like they do in Canada. NOw that i am off my soap box for the day i will have more comments at the end of the week.
