We are supposed to make a recipe for social but you have to make it up using social studies terms. The thing is that you have to make them work with each other like for example: Before baking, make sure the bowl of people bonded by World Wars has been washed thoroughly with consumerism.
Please help.
These are some ingredients you can use:
Communication Technologies
Trade
Media
Transportation
UN
EU
WTO
GATT
Transnational Corporations (I need to have this one in it)
Globalization
Poverty
Free Trade
Capitalism
Economist
Economy
Corporate Responsibility
Prosperity
War
Electronic Commerce
Consumerism
Thank You!!!
Social Studies! Help!!?
tell your teacher thats the queerest assignment ever
and that you resist doing something that doesnt relate at all to the class your taking besides vocab words.
Reply:What does cooking and socials have to do with each other?
Reply:Boil COMMUNICATION TECHNOGOLOGIES for 10 minutes make sure you pack TRADE into the COMMUNICATION TECHNOGOLOGIES. Then stir in the EU and before you consult with the UN make sure you clean out the WAR in it. Add some Economy inside your dish. Now time to Globalize your dish by adding some consumerism and prosperity. Make sure your dish is a free trade and has lots of GATT and WTO. The media is an important in your dish so bake at room temperature with transportation in it. And now sprinkle some Transnational Corporations and you are ready for your big fanale add some capatilism and you are done!!

What are NEOCON parties like (Social not Political)?
I'm curious what do NEOCONS do for fun at their social gatherings. I imagine you guys dress pretty similar at a gathering with good beer, maybe some wine that was learrned about from some taster class. I also think that NEOCONS love talking about how stupid liberals are and how they're ruining the country. Some stuff about a cultural war going on...How Bush is not get fair shake from the media. Am I close or am I just stereotyping...please inform me about your social life.
What are NEOCON parties like (Social not Political)?
neocons don't have parties.
Reply:We don't party exclusively with other Neocons. We party like any other normal people. Cultural war is not high up our agenda. You obviously don't know the difference between a Neocon %26amp; a social conservative.
Reply:first of all, no one would want to address themselves or recognize themselves as a NEOCON. but, i as a "OLDSCHOOLCON" just do what people normally do at a social gathering...socialize. no, nothing about stupid liberals. but occasionally a remark about politics...no mudslinging, though. just a simple conversation.
Reply:we talk about how clean barack osama is and then thank God that Al Gore invented the internet

Can you proffread my essay on how the media effects teen body image?
Claire
Some people think that media has nothing to do with teen body image and the way people look at themselves. The thing they don’t realize is teens have eating disorders because of what the media portrays as beautiful. Teens want to be accepted so they don’t act like themselves or look like themselves. Sometimes a teen could start to do drugs and smoke because of how dissatisfied they are with there bodies. The media definitely has an effect on how teens think of themselves and how they handle situations.
The media makes teens think they are not the average weight they are supposed to be because they see the beautiful models and want to look like them so they start to not eat normally which leads to an eating disorder. Eating disorders can harm teen’s body in ways you cannot imagine teens could end up with type 2 diabetes, ruined teeth, ruined esophagus, and become very depressed. Over 54 percent of girls, teens, and women ages 12-23 years are unhappy with their bodies. Approximately 75% of girls as young as nine years old have dieted 2 to 5 times a year. A survey was also taken at a high school and 1/3 of the students thought they were overweight when they were not. Between “5-10 million girls and women and 1 million boys and men are struggling with eating disorders including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, or borderline condition” Teens can feel like they don’t belong when they see these beautiful models. They look at the models and say “I wish I could be them” I think they just want to get some attention rather than being the same person they are everyday.
Teens are looking for acceptance in the society around them so they look and dress like people they are not. They will mimic the look of celebrities because that is the way the media portrays the way they should dress. Being yourself is more important than anything in the world so why be someone your not. If all you trying to do is climb up the social ladder be yourself doing it, people will like you for who you are not what you pretend to be. Teens don’t act like themselves they might end up doing something they will regret.
Teens have probably seen a model on Americas Next Top Model smoke to get thin or relieve stress. Teenage girls might pick up those habits and use them to get thin. Smoking is a very bad habit hard to break and could damage your lungs and you could get cancer so teens are harmed if they pick up that cigarette because they think it will help them become skinnier. Guys might not think they are tone enough when they pick up a wrestling magazine or watch wrestling on TV so they might start to take steroids to become more muscular. Doing steroids stops the natural hormone production and that is harmful for anyone’s body. If teens thinking smoking and doing drugs will make them look better, they better think again.
Teens treat there body in bad ways because the media says it is beautiful. Today’s teens don’t treat there bodies well because they have abnormal eating behavior, they pretend to be people they are not, and do things they would normally never do. If teens think they are beautiful because the media says they are they are wrong because everyone sees beauty in a different way and they are attracted to different things so who is really deciding these things for our society?
Can you proffread my essay on how the media effects teen body image?
Your ideas are sound. I would suggest reading this out loud to yourself so you can hear the grammar the way you have it written. Even better, have someone read it out loud to you.
also, if it's an essay for school, I wouldn't use contractions -- i.e., don't use *don't* use 'do not' or 'does not', etc... do you need to cite your info??
watch your spelling ... i.e. there (a place or state of being) and their (showing ownship to someone or something).
Reply:hi claire can i plz plz plz plz use ur essay? heres the reason: well u see my computer busted and i had to reformatt it and i have an essay due like that tomorrow and i wont have time to start it all over again. Report It
Reply:i was wondering if i could use that. if i cant then im really screwed and it wasnt my fault cuz it just all of a sudden crashed and i finished my essay and everything Report It
Reply:but i didnt get a chance to print it and then i will be in big trouble if i dont hand it in tomorrow. can i please please please use yours? and i know its wrong cuz its kinda plagurising Report It
Reply:but if i dont i will get another strike cuz ive had a lot of fights wid ppl in my school and if i get another one i wont be able to go on my graduation trip so that will really suck for me. please claire i beg of u Report It
Reply:No. Proofreading is a good skill to acquire, but you won't acquire it by getting someone else to do it for you.
I will give you a hint: Those long paragraphs should be split into two or three shorter ones.

Kamal Karna Roy
Residence United States
Other names Rev Dr Joseph Geronimo, Jr.
Kamal K. K. Roy
Kamal Karna Roy (also known as Kamal K.K. Roy and Rev. Dr. Joseph Geronimo, Jr.) is a prolific pro se litigant who, since at least the early 1990s, has filed numerous lawsuits throughout the United States and its territories under the names Roy and Joseph Geronimo, Jr., as well as under the names of entities that he is affiliated with, including International Siva Consciousness %26amp; World Religions, Reforms International, Handicap Interests International, and Jungle Democracy.[1] Roy's lawsuits are often brought against multiple defendants, and feature long, unconventional complaints. Roy has filed lawsuits against God, U.S. Presidents, Supreme Court Justices, fast food restaurants, foreign leaders.[2], and Wikipedia [3] [4].
Roy's lawsuits have addressed, among many other things, actions taken by President George W. Bush, overcharging by telecommunication companies, the appointment of Chief Justice John Roberts to the Supreme Court, and "failure of democratic societies and God's role therein."[5] In 2006 Judge Michael W. McConnell of The United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit described a typical Roy complaint:
Roy, a/k/a Joseph Geronimo, Jr. filed a 115-page complaint, a 144-page amended complaint, and a 40-page second amended complaint against over sixty defendants, including among many others President Bush, God as U.S.-based divine benefactor, several government agencies, The New York Times, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. In addition to pages of rambling discourse, the complaint contains numerous illegible handwritten remarks.[6]
The Tenth Circuit went on to affirm the district court's dismissal of the complaint holding that no discernible claim was apparent from the complaint. Judge McConnell also humorously noted that the court "strongly suspect[ed] at least one defendant was not properly served."[7]
Most, if not all, of Roy's complaints have been dismissed. A 2006 United States District Court for the District of Delaware opinion, Jungle Democracy v. U.S., describes Roy as "no stranger to litigation" and provides a partial list of Roy lawsuits that have been dismissed since 1991.[8]
Despite Roy's lack of success in the courts, his lawsuits have been discussed in law school classrooms and in law related blogs.[9] [10]
In April 2007 Roy filed a civil rights action against, among others, CBS Broadcasting Inc., MSNBC, the United States Government, and controversial radio shock jock Don Imus.[11]
In October 2007, Roy filed a suit in the US District Court, Middle District of Florida, against "Wikipedia Encyclopedia, USA, All News Media, All State Board of Elections, Federal Election Commission". See Dkt. 3:07-cv-00994-VMC-HTS.

Kamal Karna Roy
Residence United States
Other names Rev Dr Joseph Geronimo, Jr.
Kamal K. K. Roy
Kamal Karna Roy (also known as Kamal K.K. Roy and Rev. Dr. Joseph Geronimo, Jr.) is a prolific pro se litigant who, since at least the early 1990s, has filed numerous lawsuits throughout the United States and its territories under the names Roy and Joseph Geronimo, Jr., as well as under the names of entities that he is affiliated with, including International Siva Consciousness %26amp; World Religions, Reforms International, Handicap Interests International, and Jungle Democracy.[1] Roy's lawsuits are often brought against multiple defendants, and feature long, unconventional complaints. Roy has filed lawsuits against God, U.S. Presidents, Supreme Court Justices, fast food restaurants, foreign leaders.[2], and Wikipedia [3] [4].
Roy's lawsuits have addressed, among many other things, actions taken by President George W. Bush, overcharging by telecommunication companies, the appointment of Chief Justice John Roberts to the Supreme Court, and "failure of democratic societies and God's role therein."[5] In 2006 Judge Michael W. McConnell of The United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit described a typical Roy complaint:
Roy, a/k/a Joseph Geronimo, Jr. filed a 115-page complaint, a 144-page amended complaint, and a 40-page second amended complaint against over sixty defendants, including among many others President Bush, God as U.S.-based divine benefactor, several government agencies, The New York Times, and Kentucky Fried Chicken. In addition to pages of rambling discourse, the complaint contains numerous illegible handwritten remarks.[6]
The Tenth Circuit went on to affirm the district court's dismissal of the complaint holding that no discernible claim was apparent from the complaint. Judge McConnell also humorously noted that the court "strongly suspect[ed] at least one defendant was not properly served."[7]
Most, if not all, of Roy's complaints have been dismissed. A 2006 United States District Court for the District of Delaware opinion, Jungle Democracy v. U.S., describes Roy as "no stranger to litigation" and provides a partial list of Roy lawsuits that have been dismissed since 1991.[8]
Despite Roy's lack of success in the courts, his lawsuits have been discussed in law school classrooms and in law related blogs.[9] [10]
In April 2007 Roy filed a civil rights action against, among others, CBS Broadcasting Inc., MSNBC, the United States Government, and controversial radio shock jock Don Imus.[11]
In October 2007, Roy filed a suit in the US District Court, Middle District of Florida, against "Wikipedia Encyclopedia, USA, All News Media, All State Board of Elections, Federal Election Commission". See Dkt. 3:07-cv-00994-VMC-HTS.

Id u hear about the reverend dr kamal karna roy in news media /any source ever ?
yes
What is a disability (mental/emotional)? And what is the social stigma of mental illness?
I know the definition of disability - basically something that hinders function - but I'm looking for opinions of 'real' people and not specifically those involved with psychiatry, psychology, or social security. If you are involved with these feilds, I still welcome a response. I just don't want those who aren't to discredit their own opinion and not respond.
1 - Would you consider someone who has depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, constant suicidal ideations, or a personality disorder as a person with a disability?
2 - Would your opinion change knowing that the person either can or cannot function adequately independently, either with activities of daily living like showering, preparing a meal, or running errands, or with larger scale responsibilities such as finding and maintaining employment or tending to finances.
3 - What is the social stigma of mental illness and what contributes to this (besides the media, tv, movies, music)?
What is a disability (mental/emotional)? And what is the social stigma of mental illness?
Hi. I am on the inside of the issue--100% disability for OCD-hoarding. It is definitely a real disability, I think even if the person is functioning relatively well in (public areas of) life. It causes severe distress at home. I hid it well from most people for many years of my life, but it has only escalated over the years and it became impossible to hide. I cannot let people who don't already know me, come into my home. They would be shocked and horrified at the mess. This has caused some awkward moments with neighbors over the years!--bringing over Christmas cookies, for example, and rather than inviting them in, I have to stop them on the porch. Or someone asks to use my phone, and I bring them the cordless outside! In the winter!
I function a little better when there is someone steady in my life (a partner), because then there is more shame and more motivation to do things like shower and get rid of trash. I have not held a real job in more than 10 years; I would either get fired for working too slowly (too meticulous and perfectionistic) or I would have a stress attack (from keeping up the pretense of "normal" at work) and quit, leaving the people wondering what happened. Both of those have happened more than once.
The social stigma is enormous for this particular variation. I think that the majority of OCD people "lean" toward the compulsively-neat side of the spectrum, and many more-or-less normal people have a few OCD "clean" tendencies, too. So when people encounter an OCD hoarder, it is somewhat unusual--though far from uncommon (many people hide it successfully)--and they are surprised, repulsed and disgusted. And it makes the newspapers when the authorities find out about one of us! Animal hoarders are a subset of this group; I am not that, but I feel sorry for people who are. I think they start out to do good, but just get overwhelmed and can't keep up with their chores/duties. Lord knows, I know what overwhelmed feels like. I can look at a problem for hours, lol.
People think that a person whose house is dirty and/or cluttered is dirty about their person. This is not always true. Or that anything they cook in their kitchen would not be sanitary. Also not necessarily true . . . although I would be wary of the people who have several indoor cats. It is hard to keep up and keep them off your countertops.
On a very few occasions, I have had no choice but to let a repairman into my (rental!) house--a plumber, or the cable guy. I am always completely humiliated, because they try not to openly say anything, but I see their eyes get wide and the look on their faces, and they hurry through the job so that they can get away. Seriously. Like they are afraid I will hurt them. Or that my illness will rub off. And I always know that they go home and tell their family and friends, "You will NOT believe the place I was in today." It is really embarrassing and discouraging. Before my disability case was approved, I was on SSI and Medicaid and EBT, and I always imagined that people were shaking their heads saying, "God, poor people are disgusting and beyond help." And it wasn't because I was poor! Because now I am not, but still have not been able to change much.
My family says that they were holding their breath waiting for the disability claim to be approved, because they knew all it would take to upset my entire life was for the landlord to drop by and me to get kicked out on the street.

Reply:1- No question, yes. They are all disabilities.
2- Functioning adequately no longer constitutes "disabled", unless there are some or numerous relapses, and you can be sure in many cases there are. Also, even functioning adequately, the mentally ill are less likely to cope with the stresses that others do. As soon as stress level goes up, their functioning ability suffers. Sudden problems can occur with the kind and dose of medication they're taking, and this factors in.
3- The mentally ill are often perceived as stupid or dangerous. Only a small percentage are dangerous, and most aren't at all stupid.
Reply:As far as disability is concerned, I feel that anyone who is impeded in life, or has limited function in society due to a mental/emotional disorder..is disabled to the extent their illness causes them to be different from everyone else in a way they do not understand. Some in society do not understand the factors/stimulus involved in mental/emotional disorders, making them blind to the fact that a person, a human being lies beneath the exterior they gaze upon. In some ways, society works to alleviate the problem, yet in others, society has a way of shunning those who are different and causing more problems. God Bless
1 - Would you consider someone who has depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, constant suicidal ideations, or a personality disorder as a person with a disability?
2 - Would your opinion change knowing that the person either can or cannot function adequately independently, either with activities of daily living like showering, preparing a meal, or running errands, or with larger scale responsibilities such as finding and maintaining employment or tending to finances.
3 - What is the social stigma of mental illness and what contributes to this (besides the media, tv, movies, music)?
What is a disability (mental/emotional)? And what is the social stigma of mental illness?
Hi. I am on the inside of the issue--100% disability for OCD-hoarding. It is definitely a real disability, I think even if the person is functioning relatively well in (public areas of) life. It causes severe distress at home. I hid it well from most people for many years of my life, but it has only escalated over the years and it became impossible to hide. I cannot let people who don't already know me, come into my home. They would be shocked and horrified at the mess. This has caused some awkward moments with neighbors over the years!--bringing over Christmas cookies, for example, and rather than inviting them in, I have to stop them on the porch. Or someone asks to use my phone, and I bring them the cordless outside! In the winter!
I function a little better when there is someone steady in my life (a partner), because then there is more shame and more motivation to do things like shower and get rid of trash. I have not held a real job in more than 10 years; I would either get fired for working too slowly (too meticulous and perfectionistic) or I would have a stress attack (from keeping up the pretense of "normal" at work) and quit, leaving the people wondering what happened. Both of those have happened more than once.
The social stigma is enormous for this particular variation. I think that the majority of OCD people "lean" toward the compulsively-neat side of the spectrum, and many more-or-less normal people have a few OCD "clean" tendencies, too. So when people encounter an OCD hoarder, it is somewhat unusual--though far from uncommon (many people hide it successfully)--and they are surprised, repulsed and disgusted. And it makes the newspapers when the authorities find out about one of us! Animal hoarders are a subset of this group; I am not that, but I feel sorry for people who are. I think they start out to do good, but just get overwhelmed and can't keep up with their chores/duties. Lord knows, I know what overwhelmed feels like. I can look at a problem for hours, lol.
People think that a person whose house is dirty and/or cluttered is dirty about their person. This is not always true. Or that anything they cook in their kitchen would not be sanitary. Also not necessarily true . . . although I would be wary of the people who have several indoor cats. It is hard to keep up and keep them off your countertops.
On a very few occasions, I have had no choice but to let a repairman into my (rental!) house--a plumber, or the cable guy. I am always completely humiliated, because they try not to openly say anything, but I see their eyes get wide and the look on their faces, and they hurry through the job so that they can get away. Seriously. Like they are afraid I will hurt them. Or that my illness will rub off. And I always know that they go home and tell their family and friends, "You will NOT believe the place I was in today." It is really embarrassing and discouraging. Before my disability case was approved, I was on SSI and Medicaid and EBT, and I always imagined that people were shaking their heads saying, "God, poor people are disgusting and beyond help." And it wasn't because I was poor! Because now I am not, but still have not been able to change much.
My family says that they were holding their breath waiting for the disability claim to be approved, because they knew all it would take to upset my entire life was for the landlord to drop by and me to get kicked out on the street.

Media Coverage????
How does media coverage of crime expedite crime policy initiatives, and do Americans react too quickly to media coverage to adopt new policies, or are reactions improved because of the speed at which social issues are reported?
Media Coverage????
Often, media coverage of crime causes reflex reactions that end up with new laws being implemented that really are unnecessary because they often are just rewording the existing laws in order to created a new one. The bottom line is that one ends up being charged with breaking a dozen different laws for the same offense.

Do you think that the RACE CARD is being beaten to death by MAINSTREAM MEDIA ?
The media. The ultimate brainwashing machine. Especially when it comes to social
issues. I think we as Americans need to be
careful not to judge things not based on merit. If we do, we shall end up with another
George W Bush. Scare tactics, race bating,
cherry picking, catch phrases, verbal
psychology manipualtion. That is all it is.
And they use it well. They meaning cooperate Black/White America. We need
to focus on the issues and unite. Or we
will be destroyed. Simple. Partisanship,
biasedness, and petty politics is weak and
lame. Can we not see that we are being
hoodwinked by unseen evil ? ? I mean,
wisdom and knowledge is a threat to the foolish. Let us be wise and make sound
judgments. Not by our mind, but our heart.
You are not a pawn. Don't fall for this yall.
Let us stick together. What do you think ?

We would all do well to turn off our television sets and just make decisions on what we actually see or hear. The last thing we need is Anderson Cooper or that fool Wolf Blitzer interpreting for us... They are both Obamamaniacs and so we never hear anything good about the other side.

Sadly Obama lost alll credibility to me when his preachers videos were released.
If he was white and went to church that preached that way about black people who would not only be out of the race but out of the Senate.
Reply:Its been beaten to death because the issues of race become apparent each passing day.
Reply:I think a lot of things have been "beaten to death" by the mainstream media. The media doesn't really care as long as there's a story and they can get it. While the things they find out aren't necessarily false, they do exagerrate certain parts of it to make it seem worse or better than it really is. Many of us just need to sit back and think to ourselves about the issues and not let the media decide for us what we should think. Ultimately, I believe that we need to take care of this country. To preserve what we have and to allow our children to have the same opportunities that we had. I just don't believe that going on an endless war trying to root out all of the world's terrorists is the answer.
Reply:Its not going away anytime soon.
The problem is that nobody was complaining while Obama was untouchable in the media.
He was the chosen one but now that this story has broke the same people who were saying that Hillary was silly for thinking that the media was biased FOR Obama are the very people who think that now the media is biased AGAINST Obama, remember Geraldine Ferraro, she was slayed by the media for her comments and they were mild in comparison.
Reply:I agree that the race card is being beaten to death, but I don't agree that this is some sort of brainwashing plot by corporate America. It's more about ratings.
I think that since the media is a business, it gives us what we want. A lot of people don't want to talk about economic policy or the intracacies of foreign policy because it is either dull or complicated. However, stories about race can be sensationalized, and there isn't a whole lot of complicated economic or political theory behind it. For whatever reason it draws the attention of people.
If something draws the attention of people, then it draws the attention of advertisers. If it draws the attention of advertisers, it draws money. And ultimately, this is what it is about.
Reply:This story will be milked for all its worth only until something more attention grabbing comes alomg, then be forgotten.
Reply:It is definetely being beaten to death, but was not unexpected. There was no way this campaign was going to pass by without race becoming an issue. Some people needed this to happen so they could point and say Obama and black people are the racist, not us. Rather than these people saying they fear and dislike black people, which they know is socially unacceptable to say, it allows them to point to this issue and put the blame elsewhere. It's a way to say, "it's not us, it's those black people."
I have no issue with the media exploring everything about a candidate, but when it is beaten to death like this, then it stops being informative. We will end up in this country not making progress because we will be bogged down in things like this. As long as we keep fighting among ourselves, the elite/business, will be able to do things unnoticed by the rest of us.
Reply:No, the race card can be used because certain candidates have made choices in the past that allow this to become public debate.
Reply:Yes, the media and many politicians are beating the race issue to death but I don't agree with the brainwashing part of your statement. I am a older guy. I have been around a long time. Let me tell you, regardless of what is being touted by the media, real people of all races are getting along pretty well.
I see lots of young people of all different races hanging out together and dating etc. Perhaps they did not get the memo that they are not supposed to get along that well.
It is up to the young people to change things. It has always been so. That is why young people should seek out and read the works of our Founding Fathers and learn the real History of America as it was formed and grew in the context of time. Not by looking back through the filter of modern sensibilities and deriding everything. If you do this you can bring America closer to the vision the Founders had for her from the beginning.

I am looking for media to write in?
I am very educated who has a say in almost every social and cultural issue. I enjoy taking part in debates at home, work or in other social environments, and can attract people’s attention as a main participant. Now I am looking for media in which I can write and get paid, but not the local media at the moment. I wanna specific guidance on where to go and who to contact.
Any suggestions?

How can the people take the enormous amount of power that BIG MEDIA has in presidential elections?
The press plays a vital role in our democracy, shaping citizens’ understanding of social and political issues and functioning as gatekeepers through which issues, people, and events must pass. No matter what you care about — gun rights or abortion rights, the environment or economics — the media influence the perceptions of citizens and policymakers, affecting the policies that touch us all. Media must not be considered just another business: they are special institutions in our society. Information is the lifeblood of democracy — and when viewpoints are cut off and ideas cannot find an outlet, our democracy suffers.
Traditional media, telecommunications and cable are converging, all becoming firmly linked to the Internet. The ways we share information, the ways we receive information, and the ways this information is produced are all changing rapidly. In the halls of power — from corporate boardrooms to the corridors of the Capitol — policies are being rewritten to prepare for this new era.
Big Media, Big Cable and Big Telecom are some of the strongest and fiercest lobbies in Washington, and, indeed, across the country. One of the most profitable industries and one on which politicians depend to make their views heard, it is difficult to battle such clout. Media outlets unwilling to report on their parent company’s interests and broader issues of media reform put more obstacles in the way of public interest advocates.
BIG MEDIA has a huge effect on who wins presidential primaries. the major television news outlets are viewed by most americans, which gives them the power to manipulate the masses' opinions on candidates that would help them by relaxing laws on media ownership. They also have the power to essentially blacklist candidates who would be a threat to them by passing new laws that would be more in line with the constitution. So you can see how a candidate that values the constitution would be a major threat to them.
if Dr. Ron Paul got the amount of attention that Obama, hilary, edwards, romney, mccain %26amp; guiliani get, i am sure that he would win the election by an enormous number of votes. If the average american knew who he was, and what he is all about, he would be a huge threat to hillary's presidential campaign. Ron paul is EXTREMELY popular among the people that know who he is because he truly represents the american people, not the establishment. Ron Paul has a voting record in congress that demonstrates that he will not be pushed into voting for any unconstitutional legislation, such as the patriot act, or the real id act, or the torture bill. He is 1 of only 6 republicans that voted against the war. Ron Paul has also been named "the taxpayers best friend."
Many web sites and forums have had to shut down, due to the overwhelming number of people writing messages of support for Ron Paul. a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul. will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
here is a website called techPresident.com that has an ongoing internet poll displayed on it.
http://techpresident.com/scrape_plot/mys...
the poll shows that Ron Paul is the top republican candidate among internet users.
Yet, the big media companies IGNORE Ron Paul on their 24 hour news networks. Every other story is about which celebrity is endorsing barak obama, or what color dress Hillary wore last week at a fundraiser. How did this happen? WHat can be done about it? i am thinking maybe the fairness doctrine should be applied to the big cable news networks, even though i am a libertan.
here is an article (which i used some quotes from) that explains this further:

--------------------------
Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, who has explored a presidential run, doesn't register very high in the national polls featuring 2008 presidential candidates (1 percent, tops). But there's one place that he simply rules: the Internet.
Fans of the libertarian have stormed the Web -- in ways both good and bad -- to show their support. Over at TechPresident.com -- a Web site that tracks candidates' "friends" on the popular social networking site MySpace.com -- Paul is tops for Republicans, with 3,107 "friends" (Mitt Romney is second with 1,785).
But elsewhere, the voraciousness of Paul's supporters has sparked the ire of others. The Web site 2008HorseRace.com, which features an ongoing poll for candidates, issued this notice on Feb. 23: "Ron Paul has been suspended for two weeks because of repeated use of mob intimidation tactics and multiple threats made by Ron Paul supporters against racetrack operators, racetrack officials and racetrack sponsors." PajamasMedia.com removed Ron Paul from its presidential polls after it was discovered that someone had rigged the poll system in his favor. It has since implemented a rule that it will only include candidates polling at 1 percent or more in credible national news polls.
And a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
Paul's exploratory committee spokesman Kent Snyder thinks he knows why Paul's supporters are so gung-ho for their guy. "One of the reasons that Dr. Paul is getting a lot of cyber support is because he voted against regulating the Internet," Snyder told Yeas %26amp; Nays.

For other uses, see Elite (disambiguation)
Look up elite, élite in a Dictionary.Elite (also spelt Élite) is taken from the latin, eligere, "to elect". In sociology as in general usage, the élite (the "elect," from French) is a relatively small dominant group within a larger society, which enjoys a privileged status which is upheld by individuals of lower social status within the structure of a group. When applied to an individual, as in the phrase "many elites come to this restaurant," the usage quite economically both refers to an individual within that class and establishes the speaker as non-elite.
An elite is the result of economic and political forces within a social structure. Upon formation, societies have always had the tendency to stratify due to a combination of politics and ability. The position of an elite at the top of the social strata almost invariably puts it in a position of leadership and often subjects the holders of elite status to pressure to maintain their position as part of the elite. However, in spite of the pressures borne by its members, the existence of the elite as a social strata is usually unchanged.
1 Religious elite
2 Linguistic elite
3 Class elite
4 Educational elite
5 Financial elite
6 Military elite
7 Elitism
Religious elite
In religion the Latin form "elect" is preferred over the French form "elite" in discussing Cathar or Calvinist theology, for examples, and the social structure that is theologically driven. Other religious groups may use expressions like "the saints" to describe the elect.
Linguistic elite
Some elite groups speak a language that is not shared by the commonality: in Tsarist Russia and in Vietnam the elite spoke French, in Plantagenet England the elite spoke Anglo-Norman, and in Ptolemaic Egypt the elite spoke Koine Greek. (See linguistic imperialism.) Elites establish correct usage for the language when they share one with the commonality. Elite usage is reflected in "prescriptive" dictionaries; common usage is reflected in "descriptive" dictionaries. Elites establish cultural canons, which are more widely agreed-upon within the elite and more generally ignored or resented among the non-elite. In the 1950s, the British elite spoke what linguists of the time called U English.
Class elite
American style straw hat. Complex social rules can determine when an occasion is sufficiently informal so that a man may correctly wear this hat.Elite advantages are the usual ones of a dominant social class: easier access to capital and political power, more rigorous education largely free of indoctrination, resulting in cultural influence, and leadership.
Elites may justify their existence based on claims of inherited position; with the rise in authority of science, certain 19th and 20th century elites have embraced pseudoscientific justifications of genetic or racial superiority. In Nazi Germany, genetic superiority was used as the basis of an imagined "Aryan" elite. Elite classes headed by monarchies have traditionally employed religious sanctions for their position.
Meritocracy is a facet of society that tries to promote merit as a route to the elite. Societies such as that of the United States have it in their culture to promote such a facet [see Horatio Alger]. However, while it tends to be imperfect it sheds light as to what many believe to be the "ideal" elite: an elite that is porous and whose members have earned their position as society's top class.
Aristocracy and oligarchy are social systems which feature an elite as the ruling class. An elite group, ranged round the alpha male, is a distinct feature of other closely-related social primates.
Educational elite
Elites are educated to govern. While common public education is often designed to educate the general population to produce knowledgeable and skilled citizens, the elite approach to education is often presented at a more intellectual and demanding level, and is geared to produce leaders of a sort. It is generally defined at education geared at producing an individual capable of thinking at an intellectual level more advanced than the general population, consisting of diverse philosophical ideals and theories in order to enable the elite to logically evaluate situations.
Financial elite
Wealth is not a sure sign of elite status, as the "new rich" are frequently seen as arriving from non-elite positions. Neither does an elite necessarily show a sense of public obligation.
Military elite
A military elite is a military unit of soldiers or recruits picked for their competence and put in a special, elite unit. Elite units enjoy some benefits as compared to other units, at least in the form of higher status, but often also higher pay and better equipment. Napoléons Imperial Guard would be a good example. Note that the word elite in the military sense is fundamentally different from most other uses of the term. A social or societal elite has usually not been picked by anyone except themselves and do not necessarily make part of the elite due to their competence. Military elite units do not exercise any special leadership over other units. In the societal and social sense of the word, the elite of the army is the officer corps, not the elite units.
In the military community, it is considered doubtful if the creation of elite units are expected to do the same things as a regular military unit, only better, (as opposed to special forces that are expected to do other things than regular soldiers)is good resource manangement. Critics argue that it creates a negative "second class soldier"-feeling among the regular units. Furthermore they argue that an especially competent soldier does more good as an NCO or as just the guy who sets a good inspiring example for his comrades.
Historically many elite forces have been created and maintained as much for political reasons as for military ones. The leaders feel they need something more politically reliable than ordinary units and create elite units, hoping that the priviliges, the extra political indoctrination that such elite forces are typically given and the pride in belonging to an elite will make them more loyal. Typically, it works. Waffen-SS would be an obvious example.
Elitism
In elite theory as developed by Marxist political scientists like Michael Parenti, all sufficiently large social groups will have some kind of elite group within them that actively participates in the group's political dynamics. When a group is arbitrarily excluded from the larger society, such as in the case of the racism that was widespread in the United States prior to the success of the American Civil Rights Movement, then elite members of the excluded group may form a counter-elite to fight for their group's interests (although they may be fighting for those interests only to the extent they mesh with the counter-elite's interests). Of course, the dominant elite can neutralize the counter-elite through the classic divide-and-conquer strategy of admitting key members of the counter-elite into the elite.
Elitism usually draws envy and resentment from the lower classes and the counter-elite. There are cases where elites arguably use this resentment of an elite to maintain their position. See Communism. The Elite in the United States also use this method of control via popular culture and media influence. Author C. Wright Mills elaborates on this influence in his book The Power Elite.

Your question is one of the best I have read. My congratulations and thanks.
Man is the cause. No question about this.
But some men are more then others.
So we come to the elites.
For the bad and for the good.
Can you do anything to "improve", or change, our elites?
I believe democracy is changing our elites, but it is only the beginning.
As you know the Greeks, "invented" democracy, more then 2000 years ago.
Is it too long or too short?.
If we can find ways to improve the democratic system, the democratic ideal, the elites will, inevitable, different and better.

Look up elite, élite in a Dictionary.Elite (also spelt Élite) is taken from the latin, eligere, "to elect". In sociology as in general usage, the élite (the "elect," from French) is a relatively small dominant group within a larger society, which enjoys a privileged status which is upheld by individuals of lower social status within the structure of a group. When applied to an individual, as in the phrase "many elites come to this restaurant," the usage quite economically both refers to an individual within that class and establishes the speaker as non-elite.
An elite is the result of economic and political forces within a social structure. Upon formation, societies have always had the tendency to stratify due to a combination of politics and ability. The position of an elite at the top of the social strata almost invariably puts it in a position of leadership and often subjects the holders of elite status to pressure to maintain their position as part of the elite. However, in spite of the pressures borne by its members, the existence of the elite as a social strata is usually unchanged.

Religious elite
In religion the Latin form "elect" is preferred over the French form "elite" in discussing Cathar or Calvinist theology, for examples, and the social structure that is theologically driven. Other religious groups may use expressions like "the saints" to describe the elect.
Linguistic elite
Some elite groups speak a language that is not shared by the commonality: in Tsarist Russia and in Vietnam the elite spoke French, in Plantagenet England the elite spoke Anglo-Norman, and in Ptolemaic Egypt the elite spoke Koine Greek. (See linguistic imperialism.) Elites establish correct usage for the language when they share one with the commonality. Elite usage is reflected in "prescriptive" dictionaries; common usage is reflected in "descriptive" dictionaries. Elites establish cultural canons, which are more widely agreed-upon within the elite and more generally ignored or resented among the non-elite. In the 1950s, the British elite spoke what linguists of the time called U English.

How can the people take the enormous amount of power that BIG MEDIA has in presidential elections?
The press plays a vital role in our democracy, shaping citizens’ understanding of social and political issues and functioning as gatekeepers through which issues, people, and events must pass. No matter what you care about — gun rights or abortion rights, the environment or economics — the media influence the perceptions of citizens and policymakers, affecting the policies that touch us all. Media must not be considered just another business: they are special institutions in our society. Information is the lifeblood of democracy — and when viewpoints are cut off and ideas cannot find an outlet, our democracy suffers.
Traditional media, telecommunications and cable are converging, all becoming firmly linked to the Internet. The ways we share information, the ways we receive information, and the ways this information is produced are all changing rapidly. In the halls of power — from corporate boardrooms to the corridors of the Capitol — policies are being rewritten to prepare for this new era.
Big Media, Big Cable and Big Telecom are some of the strongest and fiercest lobbies in Washington, and, indeed, across the country. One of the most profitable industries and one on which politicians depend to make their views heard, it is difficult to battle such clout. Media outlets unwilling to report on their parent company’s interests and broader issues of media reform put more obstacles in the way of public interest advocates.
BIG MEDIA has a huge effect on who wins presidential primaries. the major television news outlets are viewed by most americans, which gives them the power to manipulate the masses' opinions on candidates that would help them by relaxing laws on media ownership. They also have the power to essentially blacklist candidates who would be a threat to them by passing new laws that would be more in line with the constitution. So you can see how a candidate that values the constitution would be a major threat to them.
if Dr. Ron Paul got the amount of attention that Obama, hilary, edwards, romney, mccain %26amp; guiliani get, i am sure that he would win the election by an enormous number of votes. If the average american knew who he was, and what he is all about, he would be a huge threat to hillary's presidential campaign. Ron paul is EXTREMELY popular among the people that know who he is because he truly represents the american people, not the establishment. Ron Paul has a voting record in congress that demonstrates that he will not be pushed into voting for any unconstitutional legislation, such as the patriot act, or the real id act, or the torture bill. He is 1 of only 6 republicans that voted against the war. Ron Paul has also been named "the taxpayers best friend."
Many web sites and forums have had to shut down, due to the overwhelming number of people writing messages of support for Ron Paul. a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul. will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
here is a website called techPresident.com that has an ongoing internet poll displayed on it.
http://techpresident.com/scrape_plot/mys...
the poll shows that Ron Paul is the top republican candidate among internet users.
Yet, the big media companies IGNORE Ron Paul on their 24 hour news networks. Every other story is about which celebrity is endorsing barak obama, or what color dress Hillary wore last week at a fundraiser. How did this happen? WHat can be done about it? i am thinking maybe the fairness doctrine should be applied to the big cable news networks, even though i am a libertan.
here is an article (which i used some quotes from) that explains this further:
(http://ronpaul.rescue-us.org/2007/03/02/...
--------------------------
Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, who has explored a presidential run, doesn't register very high in the national polls featuring 2008 presidential candidates (1 percent, tops). But there's one place that he simply rules: the Internet.
Fans of the libertarian have stormed the Web -- in ways both good and bad -- to show their support. Over at TechPresident.com -- a Web site that tracks candidates' "friends" on the popular social networking site MySpace.com -- Paul is tops for Republicans, with 3,107 "friends" (Mitt Romney is second with 1,785).
But elsewhere, the voraciousness of Paul's supporters has sparked the ire of others. The Web site 2008HorseRace.com, which features an ongoing poll for candidates, issued this notice on Feb. 23: "Ron Paul has been suspended for two weeks because of repeated use of mob intimidation tactics and multiple threats made by Ron Paul supporters against racetrack operators, racetrack officials and racetrack sponsors." PajamasMedia.com removed Ron Paul from its presidential polls after it was discovered that someone had rigged the poll system in his favor. It has since implemented a rule that it will only include candidates polling at 1 percent or more in credible national news polls.
And a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
Paul's exploratory committee spokesman Kent Snyder thinks he knows why Paul's supporters are so gung-ho for their guy. "One of the reasons that Dr. Paul is getting a lot of cyber support is because he voted against regulating the Internet," Snyder told Yeas %26amp; Nays.
How can the people take the enormous amount of power that BIG MEDIA has in presidential elections?
One thing sure..the media is over due for public scrutiny.... it's almost imbarasing to see so many americans under the influence of so few sorces of informative and unbiased information.
Lets hope the net remains an open media...
Perhaps the siber world will solve some of the problems...but then...maybe not.. people tend to get a bit baulky once they find some affermative cause, or means, or logic... i doubt we will change very much.
Good information in your ...[?]... question... thanks
Reply:It is really easy to focus on a Target and say that they are the reason that things are so bad. In truth the problem rests with the individual. If you think that the new is clouding your mind turn it off. It is just that easy.
Reply:This is not a press. It is a commercially driven enterprise. Get started and begin a press again the way the US Constitution intended.
Reply:Can you imagine that when or if the govt takes control of the Internet, our reality will be what they want us to know. Like in 'V for Vendetta' how the news scrambled the stories to suit their propaganda. It also showed how hard it will be to undo such a totalitarian govt once it is established. I like Ron Paul, D Hunter and Huckabee but the main thing is to get united on one of these and group together. Pretty soon whichever one is ahead, I'll back him too.

BIG MEDIA has a huge effect on who wins presidential primaries. the major television news outlets are viewed by most americans, which gives them the power to manipulate the masses' opinions on candidates that would help them by relaxing laws on media ownership. They also have the power to essentially blacklist candidates who would be a threat to them by passing new laws that would be more in line with the constitution. So you can see how a candidate that values the constitution would be a major threat to them.
if Dr. Ron Paul got the amount of attention that Obama, hilary, edwards, romney, mccain %26amp; guiliani get, i am sure that he would win the election by an enormous number of votes. If the average american knew who he was, and what he is all about, he would be a huge threat to hillary's presidential campaign. Ron paul is EXTREMELY popular among the people that know who he is because he truly represents the american people, not the establishment. Ron Paul has a voting record in congress that demonstrates that he will not be pushed into voting for any unconstitutional legislation, such as the patriot act, or the real id act, or the torture bill. He is 1 of only 6 republicans that voted against the war. Ron Paul has also been named "the taxpayers best friend."
Many web sites and forums have had to shut down, due to the overwhelming number of people writing messages of support for Ron Paul. a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul. will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
here is a website called techPresident.com that has an ongoing internet poll displayed on it.
http://techpresident.com/scrape_plot/mys...
the poll shows that Ron Paul is the top republican candidate among internet users.
Yet, the big media companies IGNORE Ron Paul on their 24 hour news networks. Every other story is about which celebrity is endorsing barak obama, or what color dress Hillary wore last week at a fundraiser. How did this happen? WHat can be done about it? i am thinking maybe the fairness doctrine should be applied to the big cable news networks, even though i am a libertan.
here is an article (which i used some quotes from) that explains this further:
(http://ronpaul.rescue-us.org/2007/03/02/...
--------------------------
Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, who has explored a presidential run, doesn't register very high in the national polls featuring 2008 presidential candidates (1 percent, tops). But there's one place that he simply rules: the Internet.
Fans of the libertarian have stormed the Web -- in ways both good and bad -- to show their support. Over at TechPresident.com -- a Web site that tracks candidates' "friends" on the popular social networking site MySpace.com -- Paul is tops for Republicans, with 3,107 "friends" (Mitt Romney is second with 1,785).
But elsewhere, the voraciousness of Paul's supporters has sparked the ire of others. The Web site 2008HorseRace.com, which features an ongoing poll for candidates, issued this notice on Feb. 23: "Ron Paul has been suspended for two weeks because of repeated use of mob intimidation tactics and multiple threats made by Ron Paul supporters against racetrack operators, racetrack officials and racetrack sponsors." PajamasMedia.com removed Ron Paul from its presidential polls after it was discovered that someone had rigged the poll system in his favor. It has since implemented a rule that it will only include candidates polling at 1 percent or more in credible national news polls.
And a MySpace page titled "Opinion Polling" posted the following note this week: "Temporarily shut down due to Ron Paul will be back eventually." A source said that the page's owners shut it down because Paul supporters "invaded the place."
Paul's exploratory committee spokesman Kent Snyder thinks he knows why Paul's supporters are so gung-ho for their guy. "One of the reasons that Dr. Paul is getting a lot of cyber support is because he voted against regulating the Internet," Snyder told Yeas %26amp; Nays.
How can the people take the enormous amount of power that BIG MEDIA has in presidential elections?
One thing sure..the media is over due for public scrutiny.... it's almost imbarasing to see so many americans under the influence of so few sorces of informative and unbiased information.
Lets hope the net remains an open media...
Perhaps the siber world will solve some of the problems...but then...maybe not.. people tend to get a bit baulky once they find some affermative cause, or means, or logic... i doubt we will change very much.
Good information in your ...[?]... question... thanks
Reply:It is really easy to focus on a Target and say that they are the reason that things are so bad. In truth the problem rests with the individual. If you think that the new is clouding your mind turn it off. It is just that easy.

Reply:Can you imagine that when or if the govt takes control of the Internet, our reality will be what they want us to know. Like in 'V for Vendetta' how the news scrambled the stories to suit their propaganda. It also showed how hard it will be to undo such a totalitarian govt once it is established. I like Ron Paul, D Hunter and Huckabee but the main thing is to get united on one of these and group together. Pretty soon whichever one is ahead, I'll back him too.
I smiled when I heard tough talk about social security during the debate last night, did you?
Social security is not a problem, believe it or not...
Social Security is not in crisis. The explanation is way too long to go into here but, Alan Greenspan gave, in his recently published book, an honest and accurate assessment of where we are. We are fine and it is not a looming budget crisis as many candidates attested to.
Left out of last night's debate is that Social Security is NOT a budget line item. The budget borrows money from the account and doesn't return it to out-pace the debt service and administration of the program, but, it is NOTa part of the federal budget. Nobody gets a chance to vote for or veto it. The media has led everyone to believe otherwise. It's just not true that social security is in any trouble looking out 30 years and making conservative fiscal assumptions on employment and the "annuity" to be paid..
I smiled when I heard tough talk about social security during the debate last night, did you?
Yeah, I got the feeling they were fudging some facts about Social Security. I didn't realize Social Security was not a budget item, so they had me fooled.
But even with all the spin, "reforming'' Social Security is still a non starter. For example, I can't imagine the Michiganders want to eliminate Social Security after losing their auto company pensions. The Repubs. must be playing to the old time conservative base: the one that was based on rolling back the New Deal, pointing nuclear missiles at Russia, and eliminating the UN.
My feeling is that Social Security would have few problems if the Trust Fund wasn't being raided. I don't think this will be difficult for most people to comprehend if they ever get a truthful explanation.
Medicare is the what will really bankrupt the treasury. Of course, Republicans can't talk about this without raising criticisms of their big pharm give away and the unsustainable system of medical care that we have for everyone.
Reply:Social Security will be just fine if the gov't would quit borrowing from the Social Security program itself

Reply:I am 67 and already drawing social security, so whatever they do, I won't be affected... but anyone in their 50's needs to start worrying.
Reply:Obviously we are not reading the same material. When social security was founded, 10 workers supported 1 retired person. Today 6 workers are supporting a retired person. Estimates in 15 to 20 years say that as few as 4 to 5 will be supporting a retired worker.
Social security as we know it today is broken. First of all, the money collected by FICA goes into the general fund for politicians to spend. There is no Social Security Lockbox. Just a bunch of federal IOU's right now.
Secondly, Social Security is getting about 1.5% return on the money it lends the government. Hello! My 401K is getting a 15 to 20% return. Why shouldn't I be able to take my 6.2% that goes to FICA and place it in a government approved 401K for retirement. If I am forced to contribute, why can't I manage my own piece. That way the politicians will not spend it. My employer also pays 6.2% of what I make into Social Security. This should be used to support those who are less fortunate.
If I can control my money, I can also pass this onto my children in the future. So the nest egg that I earned can also be used to support my children in the future. This makes much more sense than the crap program that we have today.

Media bias? Cons morally deficient.........??
"...liberal journalism elites are hopelessly out of touch with everyday Americans. Their friends are liberals, just as they are. They share the same values. Almost all of them think the same way on the big social issues of our time: abortion, gun control, feminism, gay rights, the environment, school prayer. After a while they start to believe that all civilized people think the same way they and their friends do, That's why they don't SIMPLY DISAGREE WITH CONSERVATIVES. THEY SEE THEM AS MORALLY DEFICIENT." This is a quote from a man who served thirty years as a journalist. He contends that 'liberal bias' doesn't simply mean being hard on Reps. and easy on Dems......real media bias is the result of how those in the media see the world - and their bias directly affects how WE ALL see the world. Now, my friends in Yahoo Land...........what is your spin on this? There IS bias in the liberal media.........it's a given. ("BIAS" by Bernard Goldberg, pub. 2002 - see page 24)
Media bias? Cons morally deficient.........??
Liberals suffer from elite subjectivity wherein there is no acceptable solution to problems unless it comes from within their own ranks which includes most of the media. Their "morality" is adequately described in Col. 2:8; "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of man, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." In other words, it's a dead end exercise in the ultimate futility. No thanks, I'll take my own morality which has a Deity base.
Reply:Everyone is entitled to his liberal view point in America, but conservatives are dogged by ACLU and CNN complaints to silence the right.
Case-in-point is the network's recent, ad-nauseum repeats of the CNN-YouTube-sponsored Democratic debate from July 23. Either CNN is really hard-up for programming or the network is trying to promote the Democratic party. I'm going to go with the latter as questions from the debate panel - YouTube users - strongly leaned to the left.
Only the CNN of the 1990s could have dragged these questions out of the pot. Most of the questions didn't tip-toe around bias; they hit it square-on. Most of the questions portrayed Republicans as gun toting, health-care denying religious zealots. One question featured a man with an assault weapon he called his "baby." Others featured everything from a talking, melting snowball asking about global warming to the atheist who was concerned with politicians pandering to religious Americans. Presidential debates are usually tremendously formal affairs; however, the CNN-YouTube debate was a scam!
On the other hand, a May 25 NBC Nightly News report, correspondent Campbell Brown reported claims of liberal bias in public broadcasting by Kenneth Y. Tomlinson, the Republican chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), and Cliff Kincaid, an editor at the conservative watchdog group Accuracy in Media (AIM), but the report provided no evidence to support these allegations and offered no assessment about whether they are credible.
As a liberal Fox basher said, "At least FOX hasn't flip flopped- they've alway been blatantly conservatively biased!"
Reply:I have heard some people get mad about BET and black newspapers... but to be honest, I think they are owned by the same companies that own the other newspapers.

You can take over a country without firing a single bullet.
1. Take over education - especially political science, arts, and history
2. Take over the media
3. Get lots of lawyers on your side.
4. Establish and control civil rights groups
5. Buy off politicians (who are mostly lawyers)
6. Control Entertainment (main source of free speech)
7. If any opposition pops up you don't like or agree with buy, squash, deflamate, take control buy whatever means necessary.
8. Get your bought politicians to buy your crap using taxpayers money.
9. Control religion
10. Set up a satelite country in case things get bad. Get your bought politicians to send mass foreign aid there. Also get your bought religious leaders to ask for charity.
11. Above all find a scapegoat. Two or three if you can to blame all your problems on.
I hope nothing like that ever happens here in America. Thank goodness we have free press and a constitution that protects us from such things occurring.
Good Luck !!!

Why does the media whip up such hatred against president Bush?
I mean it seems like everything major that he wants, the liberal media brain washed americans to oppose the president. For example, Illegal immigration, social security, the war on iraq. I have never seen anything like it.
Why does the media whip up such hatred against president Bush?
Is the media causing the poor job approval, or are the low approval ratings giving the media it's courage back?
He has crerated an administration of fear + lies = propaganda.
You can fool all of the people some of the time. You can fool some of the people all of the time. But you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Eventually, the truth will come out, the lies will be exposed, and the regime will topple.
Try critically evaluating what's going on instead of letting your fear deartoy your mind.
Just because I think Bush is a master manipulator and a sociopath doesn't mean I hate him.
Reply:Well, I suppose I could tell you why I object to the causes you outlined in your question, however, I can say that the media in all respects, written, radio, and the tv have been too kind to this Republican Administration led by President George W. Bush/Cheney.
Anyway, my take on the issues addressed in your query:
The currant laws on illegal immigration have been unenforced by this Republican Administration thus contributing to a breach in security of our entire southern border with Mexico, and an increase of up to 20 million more people in the United States.
The changes in Social Security, was an incredibley stupid idea of using half of the SS contributions of workers salary to an individual private account like an IRA. This of course would never work because when a worker is subject to losing a job by down sizing or out sourcing he/she will undoudtedly go to the private account and empty it. It will serve no purpose when a person gets old enough to draw SS because the worker will have reduced the amount in the private account.
The war in Iraq was the biggest military blunder in the history of civilization.

With eroding social values, how can we preserve cultural identity?
Social values are evolving at an alarming rate. Global issues are crowding local media venues. Traditional political values are becoming obsolete. How will this affect 'Cultural Preservation,' when our attention span is committed elsewhere?
With eroding social values, how can we preserve cultural identity?
With information revolution, the world is becoming a smaller place by the day. Thus ones cultural uniqueness, or ones cultural identity may not be so much personal anymore.
With growing interaction amongst different cultures and societies, the cultural uniqueness begins to fade and this gives way to a more tolerant and acceptable form of global culture and society. Though it'll take ages before the cultural and social boundaries are insignificant once and for all, it'll result in a more coherent society.
Reply:Our social values have been changing for decades, for longer than decades, the results of which has been a clear change in our culture through inter-racial marriages which has produced sub races with new cultures and new beliefs. Where have you been? We are evolving as we should.

Is the media more powerfull than the entire Government system?
I'm not exactly talking about the power, power here means their network, their working style, their dedication, their potential, their vision, their honesty, their responsibility towards the society.
The media has become so powerfull that they reaches all aspects of life, crime, social problems such efficiently and when they highlight those problems, those crimes then our police, or government becomes active? Why can't they do these things when it's their responsibility?
Suggestion: People should become proactive and more sensitive towards the social, political and ethical issues. Raise your concern and you'll see you are not alone.
Is the media more powerfull than the entire Government system?
In democracy, there ought to be different agencies playing their respective role. It is difficult to say one organ is more powerful than another. Media is helpful in highlighting the merits and demerits of the governmental action. But that does not mean that the media is at liberty to sensationalise and become judgmental. It is not uncommon to find that many of the news items are biased and one sided. On such occasions, Government is at liberty to curb them. Media cannot be allowed to run the government.
Reply:The media is the entire govt system
Reply:here in the Philippines, that situation is true. not only because mass media reaches ore people than the whole gov't but because the people trust mediamen than gov't officials. i cant blame them because we really have a nasty political system here.
many if not most public officials are called "trapo" (rags) from traditional politicians. all they do is corrupt the system and take public funds for themselves. this is commonplace here. to get a good picture, watch our local news with scenes from the senate or congress. u will see many officials chatting with their seatmates or on the phone. some are even sleeping during sessions.
in contrast, the media, especially the 2 biggest networks here, have foundations that help in calamities and other social needs like health and education. they distribute books and educational materials to far corners of the country to augment the measly budget of the govt.
please note that the gov't budget allots more for repaying of debts and the millitary than education and health, which is unconstitutional. the health sector allots about a peso for each Filipino. also note that the budget gives millions of pesos (if im not mistaken) to each congressman (even those who are caught sleeping in session) as their "pork barrel" which they are "supposed" to use in developing their respective districts.
also, there are programs here the expose the "misbehavings" of public officials, becuase even if the issues are very public, nobody does anything bout them excpt when the media exposes them.
we Filipinos generally rely on the private sector in protecting and upholding our rights against the gov't, which should not be the case.

many if not most public officials are called "trapo" (rags) from traditional politicians. all they do is corrupt the system and take public funds for themselves. this is commonplace here. to get a good picture, watch our local news with scenes from the senate or congress. u will see many officials chatting with their seatmates or on the phone. some are even sleeping during sessions.
in contrast, the media, especially the 2 biggest networks here, have foundations that help in calamities and other social needs like health and education. they distribute books and educational materials to far corners of the country to augment the measly budget of the govt.
please note that the gov't budget allots more for repaying of debts and the millitary than education and health, which is unconstitutional. the health sector allots about a peso for each Filipino. also note that the budget gives millions of pesos (if im not mistaken) to each congressman (even those who are caught sleeping in session) as their "pork barrel" which they are "supposed" to use in developing their respective districts.
also, there are programs here the expose the "misbehavings" of public officials, becuase even if the issues are very public, nobody does anything bout them excpt when the media exposes them.
we Filipinos generally rely on the private sector in protecting and upholding our rights against the gov't, which should not be the case.
Reply:Its True, now days a poll opinion can make a change thru media.Govt stable can go rocking down.
Reply:the media can literally destroy your life. Say you get questioned for a murder or even arrested even though you're not guilty, the media will still make you out to be guilty as will the american ignorant public and you basically will have no life because everyone will associate you with that instead of knowing you're innocent and letting you get back to a normal life.

Reply:Corporations control the government and the media.
Reply:In a democratic country -media can be more powerful than the Govt, coz it can expose the wrong-doings of the govt. So it is one-up on the govt, unless the Govt bans certain sections or censors the media.
