I posted this in a couple of other places but its a great explaination on why MSM isn't covering voting fraud (I am sure this is not the only reason but it stands out in my mind).

Media Blackout on Election Fraud by Media News Group

Denver Post and 94+ Newspapers, Radio Stations, TV Stations

Corporate Profits vs Civil Rights, and the Vote

Denver, Co: November 26, 2004

To those of us on the inside of this issue, it seems inconceivable that our local newspapers would offer a front page story on election fraud in Ukraine while ignoring stories of the same right here at home in the United States. Every day, since November 2nd, 2004, stories have emerged detailing such things as malfunctioning voting machines, fraudulent election records in Volusia, Florida, inconsistent numbers of voter registrations vs. vote totals in Ohio, credible university studies showing serious statistical impossibilities in election results, and much more. Yet, these daily revelations have been almost completely ignored by our media. These reports are coming not from persons with tin foil hats as is often claimed, but from PhD level citizens, election officials, and voting rights activists.

This past Wednesday, November 24th in Denver Colorado, a small group went to the Denver Post headquarters to protest a media blackout on coverage of the issue of election fraud. They tried to see someone, anyone at the Denver Post but where turned away at security checkpoints consistently. Eventually the settled for a phone number a vowed to return every Wednesday at noon in greater numbers. According to one member, they have not ruled out spreading the protest to other cities.

So question number one comes to mind; if the Denver Post is just a local paper, why where they so insistent that the public not be able to see them.

According to the Denver Post Web Site they are just a local newspaper. Searching further reveals that they are in fact owned by William Dean Singleton and Media News Group, Inc. (the list of properties they hold is woefully out of date on their web site). Media News Group is located in the Denver Post Building and is owner of at least 94 seperate media properties including newspapers, radio stations, and television stations in 12 states. See Media Holdings for a partial list

So what do we have so far? A strong desire to merge and acquire, secrecy, and thank you to the son of the Secretary of State of the Bush Administration. Oh and a need for the current administration, who is very friendly to media mergers, to stay put in order to push through the FCC's agenda. Then along came Kerry... Kerry was short sighted in this case. What one thing could he possibly do to make all of our major media him? Even if he was right?

The Democrats Don't Love US

John Kerry, ""I'm against the ongoing push for reducing restrictions on media concentration," Kerry said on August 6, 2004, echoing the question by Forbes senior editor Brett Pulley. "It's contrary to the greater goals of democracy for the country." see: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr/media/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000600685. Kerry said this right before all of the major media outlets decided who to support for President.

This in effect said to every major media outlet in the world, "I will limit your profit potential!"
