Using a statute that was supposed to free slaves, they instead began taking away the rights of citizens with their excessive financial powers, as individuals instead of their as public servants as discussed in promotional advertising and journalism school. The natural result is a propaganda machine focuses on corporate agenda, corporate profits and supporting campaign finance donors. The vast majority of Americans have been stripped of their voice.

Our papers are really biased in Alabama. Especially with Scrushy/Siegelman case. They have a one-sided view on what they will print. One paper even went so far as to tell me she was not printing another editorial that I wrote about Siegelman/Scrushy case, that I had already got my point across! This was a local paper. (I think privately owned) Even though I have to admit I was sending an editorial to her about twice a month and about 40 newspapers across the state. Only very few got published! A very good source for news is the Internet, but for the people who can't afford a computer or are disabled, they have to sadly rely on the newspapers in Alabama and elsewhere!
