3. When I saw 95%..
I was sure it had already been DU'ed (aka freeped). But no! The majority of Americans actually don't like the idea of media conglomeration. This is one of the few issues that isn't totally polarizing.

17. I'd say it is completely polarizing...
The owners of giant media conglomerates vs. everyone else...

9. Watch
This will get buried SO fast. The big media can't tolerate this, and the Bushies will NOT want this becoming an issue in '04. Any Dem with half a brain SHOULD use this as a campaign issue though. It appeals to a LOT of people.
