    • ]]>     I know this is from last week (sorry, been watching the World Cup), but it’s yet another Daily Show clip exposing the sorry state of the American mainstream media. Michael Hastings, with his Rolling Stone piece that led to the downfall of General McChrystal, showed these morons how to do real journalism and the best they can do is whine about how Hastings got so much access.

    For more on this I recommend Glenn Greenwald’s excellent post on the subject.

  • What has caused the demise of the Newspaper?
    • ]]>     Jeremy Scahill and Glenn Greenwald were recently on GRITtv with Laura Flanders to discuss the failures of US corporate media to hold political leaders to account.  They expose the corrupt mindset of beltway journalists that proclaims it their job to simply report what the powerful say, with little challenge, in order to maintain insider access.
