I think Obama not only will control the media, but he will force all Americans to read The Pravda. Not to mention, convert all Americans to Muslim faith. Also, all American women will be asked to abort their firstborn.

I'll think of more such fabrications later to complement your post.

No, the media is controlled by conservatives like Rupert Murdoch.

It's really too bad that conservatives have painted intellectual and journalistic integrity as "liberal" - 1984 was meant to be a cautionary tale, not a guide to governance.

Most media outlets are controlled by members of the Bilderbergers. What they can't control is the media outlets such as the internet. Which is why they would very much like to make it like China's internet and everything be censored to their views.

Look around, it's the Liberals who control the media, Fox is just a fly in the ointment.

If we have a Obama win, many of these same Liberal news organizations will move to the right.

Greg you no longer live in America. You live in the NAU. Soon you will be paying a world tax to feed the wealthy. Thats what you should be concerned with. Besides taxes don't go to support this stuff. It's all a huge lie. Taxes became law because when they created the Federal Reserve and started printing all the money within no time people were getting too rich and regional banks were growing too fast and not the Federal Reserve as they had planned. This is why you pay a tax. It's nothing but an interest on money. All taxes collected by the Government are spent in interest to this cartel of bankers the Federal Reserve before the first check is cut to pay for public services. That money is borrowed from the Federal Reserve and we pay an interest on it. The media won't touch this FACT because they are bought and paid for by these same people. And yes I will admit Obama is in their pockets as well. But not as deep as the likes of Bush and McCain.

Our founding fathers very specifically wrote into the constitution that money could only be coined for a reason. Since before Christ bankers (Goldsmith's back them) have taken advantage of their position, became to greedy and used this position and greed to abuse power until they were eventually killed or imprisoned. Coins hold within themselves a intrinsic value. They have to be mined and minted before reaching the public. This requires labor. For you to obtain a coin you would then need to exchange either labor or something of value to obtain it. Whereas today you have money being created out of thin air. And it's not just the US this is all over the world. If you took a gold coin back 2-300 years ago you could buyy a new high quality set of clothes and shoes. If you took a gold coin today you could buy a high quality quality set of clothes and shoes. If you took a $1 bill 50-60 years ago you could buy an outfit. If you took a $1 today you can buy a snickers bar. The game is up.

Kincaid said that the major media's cover-up of the bill, which makes levels of U.S. foreign aid spending subservient to the dictates of the United Nations, demonstrates the media's desire to see Senator Obama elected to the presidency.

Did you know this bill was passed?

Another way to skim and/or hide some cash.

The latest Fox news poll puts Obama +9 over McCain, last week they only made Obama +7 points. At this rate according to the Fox figures Obama could be +13 points on November 4.

I do agree with Raider on one point though (OK, pick yourselves up off the floor and stop looking so astonished), many news organisations may well (appear to) move to the right when Obama wins on November 4. This is only right, the traditional media should always act as a counter balance to the political party in power, the traditional media should question the President (and Vice President - unless of course her name is Palin). This produces a strong and free democracy. When this does not happen we end up with the unjustified war in Iraq or such like.

All media is biased...why not take it all in and decide for yourself.

Wrong Wrong Wrong. Obama is controlled by the evil hamburger planet of Cheezletus that are mad at white people for eating their babies here on Earth. The reason why they want him elected is so we can be forced into vegetarianism. If you don't believe me than how come McDonalds is raising their double cheese burger prices? Proof right there! They are forcing us slowly to become vegetarians and if Obama wins..there goes the burgers! And the worst part is this is happening without anyone else knowing but a select few and with nobody doing anything about it. So in essence, those people must be apart of it too and are secretly getting paid by McDonalds and the evil Hamburgers of the Planet Cheezletus.

I dont know if he owns the Media, but he paid millions to be on my tv every commercial break. He does mix it up with some negative mccain ads.
You must have 50/50 face time, as the new law now mandates.

I guess it's safe to say that most journalists by training are more liberal-leaning, while their bosses (business people) may not be.

They seem to report lies or state the facts wrong and influence your options.

That's why you do your own fact checking, opinion gathering and weigh everything. Don't base it on what people are saying in the media.

Question: Obama, Does he Control the Media?

Answer: Well it must be yes if you are asking such an absurd question.

My guess is that he writes McCain's speeches as well as McCain's policies when McCain is interviewed. I would also guess that Obama is the one who goes into McCain's own website and constantly rewrites the content to reflect and keep up with McCain constant flip-flops. And it has to be Obama that schedules McCains appearances on the news show and David Letterman as well as set up McCain's itinerary.

Or not.
