Relevant to /pd's comment, though, is the agenda issue. Money may be just a tool, but those who wield it almost always have political agendas, and those of main stream media are mostly left, not right.

Call me a hopeless optimist, /pd, but I also believe that the individual voice hasn't drowned here, and won't in future.
