in honor of Walter Cronkite, and Edward R. Murrow, and real journalists. I do tune in to the local channel at 20 past the hour to get the 7 day weather forecast. And,I have been getting some reportage and opining from the Thom Hartmann Show and the Bill Press Show, on The Free Speech TV network.

Otherwise Corporate media is totally dead to me.
