News people are speaking so rapidly anymore that I can hardly understand them. They need to in order to get some news in between commercials.

(10,499 posts)the spill. The commercial invited people to "Come on down to the coast!" I saw this even in Key West, as far down as you can go. No TV, radio station, or newspaper would report on what was going on. BP could have their way with the victims and the story would never reach a mass audience.
Rachel Maddow went there early on. She promised to keep following up, but no. Ed Schultz did a whole week of stories a couple of months before her was booted out of MSNBC.
BP killed a huge story of what happened and what is going on.
The networks will do whatever any big advertiser wants, no wonder Bernie received little coverage, and most of that was belittling. The plutocrats/Koch had this planned and paid for from way back.
