We should all be sorry, because we are all guilty.
Guilty of allowing the media to act like a bunch of bloodthirsty vampires . . .much the way they acted towards Princess Diana and contributing to her death with their actions. Much like Kim Bassinger and her husband Alex Baldwin, when Alex physically hit a reporter that was pushing too hard to get a story - and they are only examples of the out-of-control problem. Guilty of not allowing the citizens of the United States to think for themselves. I get so angry when, like this evening, the President gave his address to "We the People." The press had to get on before and tell us what they thought the President was going to say and then they got on after and told us their interpretation of what he said and then they put on Republicans and others to comment on it. I don't know about you, but I heard what President Clinton said, and that was all I wanted to hear. We have eyes that can see and ears that can hear and a brain that can process the information given us. I take it as an insult to the intelligence of the American people and I am not alone. When will the media get the message that we are tired of them sensationalizing everything and looking for the bad in everyone. And while I'm on a roll here, another thing that frustrates the me is the prediction of elections. Several years ago, I had stood in line for over four hours to vote . . .I was within six feet of the polling booth and the media proclaimed the Presidential winner of the election. The polls had not closed in over two-thirds of the United States and the media had already pegged the winner. Many people will change their votes when something like this is announced, because although they may have intended to vote another way, everyone likes to be able to say that their candidate won. I want to tell the media to let us all vote - wait until the last poll has closed and then tell us. Give us back our voting privileges, the ones that say, one vote can make a difference. President Clinton has now admitted to having inappropriate moments with Monica. last night and already this morning the Go To Page: 1 2
