Read about it at MSNBC!

It looks as though perhaps the mainstream media has become enamored with conspiracy theory. You think? Or has the tremendous loss of profits and thus jobs in the media over the past couple of years nudged the media into, gasp, beginning to investigate and report real news? Only time will tell I suppose. However, I think the MSM probably has a large hill to climb in regaining their credibility atleast among sentient human beings. Apparently government produced and released propaganda pieces do not sate the appetite of those that seek realiable news and information. It looks as though the population of "ditto heads" willing to tune in and nod their heads obediently is not sufficent to financially maintain the fourth estate in the manner in which they had become accustomed. Hopefully these free market forces have and will continue to awaken the MSM from their slumber. For their sake, I hope they have not waited too long to seek to restore some semblance of a free and honest American press.
