Main Stream Media

If this doesn’t frighten you, you’re not paying attention!

“With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations, — none of which I know how to work — information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation.

All of this is not only putting new pressures on you, it is putting new pressures on our country and on our democracy.”

Perhaps Mr Obama fears the people having open sources of information and ideas that the government cannot control.  Perhaps the only “tools of empowerment” and “means of emancipation” are MSNBC, NBC, etc?
