(V): Add to that, that our major media are now owned by literally a half-dozen major corporations whose executives and major shareholders have a financial stake in not only distorting the reality of our predicament but also in omitting important news & facts which do not fit their agenda, and the result is that you have Americans thinking European countries are dangerously socialist while here, the poor are blamed for being poor & the system is praised for its "opportunity."

The Usurper:

Dangerously socialist!!!!!!!! Each country elects their own government, from many party's. Right, left, central and oddball!!

Since we changed our digital services provider I can now see what you mean, as we get to see Fox News (owned and run by conservatives) ... The editorials are certainly and talk bits are certainly.... lacking.
