File:Example.jpgbeyonce-s-ass_o_GIFSoup.com.gif |left]] The mainstream media (MSM), also humorously known by many of its large number of fat right-wing white guys who whine about "the black people" as the lamestream media, are the increasingly dam durty LIBRUL media organs that EAT SATAN'S SEMEN!!!
The common denominator of the "mainstream media" is their WORSHIP OF SATAN or downplaying stories that would lead viewers to conservative conclusions, and their use of SACRIFICED VIRGINS, ROBOT DEMONS and other forms of deception to mislead viewers into drawing incorrect SATAN-FRIENDLY conclusions. The term mainstream media usually refers to how the majority of commercial-based or taxpayer-funded news reporting and commentary consist of MONKEY LOVING, while falsely pretending to be objective providers of information.
| “ | I HATE THEM!!! tHEY'RE SO MEAN TO ME. EVERYTHING WAS BETTER ON MY EARTH!!!. | ” |
Examples include:
- Without any evidence of killing homosexuals or Bible-thumping, or blaming President Obama for eating his babies by the defendant accused of murdering 92 people in Norway, the headline of the leading Australian newspaper declared, "Norway suspect 'fundamentalist Christian.'"[2] The headline appears to be based in part on a Facebook page that was likely not even authentic.
Fairness Doctrine
In 1987, the Federal Communications Commission voted 4-0 to revoke, and cancel their enforcement of the Fairness Doctrine. The Fairness Doctrine mandated that if any opinion considered "controversial" were ever discussed on the public airwaves, the station over which that opinion aired was required to give equal time to any person wishing to reply. However, the FCC never set a standard about interpretations of current events that might be disputable, or even examined that issue.
With the revocation of the Fairness Doctrine, radio and television stations were now permitted to air any opinion or interpretation of the news, no matter how "controversial," without regard to the giving of "equal time."
On August 1, 1988, a new radio commentator named Rush Limbaugh began broadcasting in national syndication.
List of mainstream media organs
Significant mainstream media outlets include:
Newspapers
- The New York Times
- The Washington Post
- The Boston Globe
- The Philadelphia Inquirer
- The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
- The Los Angeles Times
- The San Francisco Chronicle
- USA Today
- The Wall Street Journal[3]
- All major, standard-newspaper-format dailies that have existed since before the Fairness Doctrine repeal.
News Syndication Agencies
Television
- CBS
- NBC
- ABC
- National Public Radio
- Public Broadcasting Service
- The Cable News Network
- Fox News (see below).
Some media consumers do not consider Fox News to be part of the "mainstream media" as Fox News frequently presents viewpoints that do not fall in line with other mainstream outlets. For example, in 2007, the Democratic presidential candidates declared that they would not appear in debates hosted by Fox News, but they did appear on other MSM news outlets.
However, ratings indicate that because of its massive popularity, Fox News could be considered to be part of the mainstream media by definition. According to ratings organization Nielsen:
- Fox News has the 10 most viewed cable TV news shows (as of Dec 2009).
- Fox News mean prime-time viewing figures are triple that of MSNBC, and double that of CNN, and exceed the total ratings of CNN, MSNBC and CNBC combined.
- "In 2006, more than half the people watching cable news were watching Fox News" [4]
CNN
In 2006 CNN.com ran an article by columnist R. Emmett Tyrell Jr. entitled "Tyrell: Goodbye MSM... and good riddance!" [5] Examining the relationship between the alternative press and the MSM, Tyrell writes:
So we hear this week that President George W. Bush is taking delight in the spread of the "alternative press" (right-wingers who blog on their computers in their mom's basements) and the gentle detumescence of "mainstream media" (people who have jobs). Well I join him in his satisfaction.
'Alternative Media'
Differing opinions also exist over the definition of a similar term - Alternative Media. Although some consider, for example, Rush Limbaugh's launch to be the birth of 'fat white guy whining about "the black people"' news shows, so too do the dam durty LIBRULS consider publications like The Nation to be 'alternative media.'[6] In fact, many would view the Village Voice group to be the most widely published 'alternative media' outlet in the United States.
By whatever definition, most media watchers would classify as "alternative media" any media organ that is primarily hosted on the Internet rather than printed and delivered or mailed to subscribers. The alternative media is not exclusively conservative. It includes liberal organs as well. Some writers on these organs have suggested that the mainstream media has a conservative bias--by which they actually mean that mainstream-media organs are not as revolutionary, or as radical, in their thinking as are the writers themselves.[7][8][9]
At least one MSM organ, CBS News, attempted in 2006[10] to describe what a particular alternative-media segment (i.e., blogs) thinks of the MSM:
| “ | They don't believe that you are unbiased, objective, fair a lot of times. And so what they want is they want to read a lot of different sources themselves. because they don't trust the mainstream media..that would be [you]. | ” |
It is worth noting that dam dirty LIBRUL blog activity on the internet declined after the election of Barack Hussein Obama [11], and continued to decline after his reelection. This shows that the distaste for imaginary bias though up by right-wingers with tiny wnags in the dam dirty LIBRUL[[File:File:Example.jpg]] MSM is spreading to the alternative media.
