We Need a NEW Press!!

Everyone by now has heard about the disgusting mucky mess Newsweek created by its shoddy, NON-researched reporting. And, probably most have heard - or seen - the incredibly vile hatred and disrespect shown toward our military and OUR White House by the press in the last couple of days.

I believe it is time for a monumental change. It's time we took back our news and our press. It's time to demand quality and TRUTH, not glitz and rumor. Time we took control away from the established elite media who have enthroned themselves, puffing themselves up in their own minds to such an extent that they TRULY believe they are superior to you, to me, to our goverment, and our military.

The Anchoress summed it up nicely in a post yesterday. Here's a small snippet:

America is going to have to decide, finally, if this snarling, sneering, deaf, accusative, snotty and ultimately unhinged pack is what they want in their most powerful journalists. And she is going to have to make herself heard about it.

Yes - we need a "free press" to help ensure and protect our freedoms in this country. But we don't need THIS one - the one we have allowed ours to become. It's vile and disgusting. Putrid, really. And the stench of the rotteness comes from its core. The profession needs to be fumigated to rid it of the filth it has collected. And, if that turns out to be impossible, then we simply need to toss it out - the way we do any other rotten garbage. Scrap it. And start over.

Of course, I have no idea how any of this can be accomplished. But, I truly believe it's time.
