Jonathan Schwarz of A Tiny Revolution explains that the news media have sided with the privileged elite, a class to which you almost certainly don’t belong. 2. In an unguarded moment, the Editorial Director of CBSNews.com explains what was really going on over the last twelve years. 3. CNN demonstrates its loyalty to the dark side of the force (by hiring "loathsome and completely unprofessional idiot" Glenn Beck), and 4. We discover yet again that deceiving us has become an industrial process (corporate PR videos being shown as newscasts).
