i am now more convinced than ever that there is a media consipiracy. it’s not a “liberal media conspiracy” as all the right-wing paranoids like to rant about, or even a “conservative media conspiracy.” it’s a conspiracy by the media to keep elections as close as possible. i think CNN and all the rest keep a close eye on the election and subtly help whichever candidate is behind or hurt whichever is ahead; an offhand remark by a newscaster here, a DUI charge dug up there… end result is that everyone in the US has to stay up till 3 am watching the news (and all the commercials therein) and we still don’t know who won.
