Main Stream Media..anything to incite fear..ANYTHING..
It is what they do. Almost always. From total coverage of Hurricane.??? to over the board coverage of some crazy shooter somewhere, to worry about this or that. The MSM is about fear, not solutions. For fear would have us turn to some strong leader..at least one that looks strong.

..From that we go to keeping things like they are. Especially the continued consolidation of the media in the hands of the few. Mc Cain will help media consolidate. Obama is for increased competition in the media.. And who will that hurt, and who will that help.
Again, and again. I am sick of it.

3. NatGeo aired "Inside 9/11" last night which included the sight of
people falling from the buildings. Gotta keep that fear factor going.
