Letter to USA

Following up on David's last post, there is a great essay from David Warren entailing the state of the American media. Told from a Canadian perspective, the commentary is insightful and timely. If you don't have the time (or patience) to read the entire essay at least take this chewy nugget with you:

"If you want to know what John F. Kerry's campaign wants you to know, and nothing more, you read the big newspapers or watch the evening news on the established TV networks. But if you want to know something else, you turn to the Internet, or talk radio, or cable. The "old media" are the trains in this analogy: no longer competing locally on both sides, but now one big Democrat machine. The "new media" now offer the crazy quilt, within which one must look for the Republican messaging services."
