Media or lack thereof

With all the commentary about how the Corporate Mass Media are not doing their jobs going on today you would think it is a new thing, oh, but you'd be wrong!
Also, about the 'Liberal' Media hokum bandied about by the wing-nuts ....

Here is a quote from president Lyndon Johnson that addresses both the idea that Corporate media are not just now 'not doing their jobs' but in fact haven't been doing it for a good while and the fallacy of the 'Liberal' Media.

If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac river, the headlines that afternoon would have read, “President Can’t Swim”

~ Lyndon Johnson.
