I think the media is more than responsible for the failed state of our 'democracy'.
When the likes of Kevim meyers , John waters et al can spout such rubbish and continnue on that course unmolested through the Irish press without a hint of accountability for their lies says it all to me.
When Bertie, Harney ,Cowen, O'Dea etc talk of peace while participating in genocide and the press stay silent on their lies-and dont mention their investments also says it all.
It is my view that Ireland is nothing more than a 'Paracite Facist' client state of the US/K, and little else.

When Waters is on the ropes the only pathetic question he can proffer to get himself out of deep water in his aggitators voice is ...' do you, or do you not, condem suicide bombing-yes or no?'....and then he runs under the cover of protection from RTE (refuse to tell the electorate), while he ignores the same question given to him regarding Carpet bombing villages, Cluster bombing civilians, Napalming children, Stealth bombing etc...as Pat Kenny, Miriam O'Callaghan, Joe Duffy, George Hook, Gerry Ryan segway into....'moving on...no were moving on now'...
These men and women should not be allowed to possess a pencil or sit in front of a microphone, let alone have jobs which pays them a fortune, to spread their anti-moslem racist propaganda to continnue unquestioned.
RTE, SKY and FOX are nothing more than glamorous, sexier, 'liberal', colour versions of Hitlers press propaganda machine which deamonised the Jewish people and made it possible for the Nazis to carry out their Evil Plan. Without it....it could never have happened.

Looks good. Hopefully I'll be able to make the DIT one.

Funny though, Indymedia is a self proclaimed 'radical' and 'passionate' media source that I'm sure plays a role in radicalising society.
