Re: Matt Taibbi Hypocrisy Watch

What absolute piffle. Does this mean not a single person who publishes in Rolling Stone can be anti-corporate? Or just they the anti-corporate shouldn't be published in corporate magazines?

Either of these arguments is so brain-punchingly demented that I weep for its supporters. Don't you think that perhaps - just maybe - journalists have the responsibility to access audiences to speak truth to power? Don't you see a difference in the corporate control of the media and corporate control of the political system?

Are we stuck in 1961, by gum? If you want anger about the corruption in the world to spread, you'll need to make that anger travel along means by which money and corruption will spread as well. Welcome to the world, now read a goddamned book.

Ralph Nader is your model for the incorruptible?
