Social Activism
Cleaning up the Media

VIDEOS Cleaning up the Media should be a priority, and starting off with Fox News is a good place to start

COMMENTARY
The anger at the mainstream media in the USA is well deserved, and especially anger at Fox News, a part of the Murdoch media empire that is implicated in serious wrongdoing at its UK units, which may or may not have spilled over into the USA.

It is very good for society in the USA to have powerful media people held to account for their work ... and in these clips it is fairly clear thaty Geraldo is having difficulty taking the heat.

It is high time the mainstream media cleaned up its act.

Geraldo trying to 'set up' the Occupy Movement


Geraldo and Fox run away from Wall Street

Fox News correspondent Geraldo Rivera attempted to report from the Occupy Wall Street protests in Lower Manhattan today but was forced to abort the broadcast after a throng of demonstrators led a rally of anti-Fox jeers. The incident was caught on camera by RT's Lucy Kafanov. http://twitter.com/lucykafanov


Fox News LIARS Visit Occupy Wall Street 10/09/11

The 99% tell the 'serious' people of Fox News to SHOVE IT. Don't lecture us about 'personal responsibility,' you phone bugging hypocrites and Wall Street apologists! Solutions: impose a tax on all stock trades (known as the financial transactions tax), break-up the banks and the media oligopoly, End the Fed, outlaw usery, bring all troops home from the wars of profit and terror and impose tariffs on imported products from developing nations (i.e. stop exporting America's jobs to the developing world). This is the short list. Feel free to add to the list in the comments section.

'Fox News Lies' is not just a slogan. Fox defended a lawsuit by saying it has a First Amendment right to broadcast 'false, distorted or slanted' news stories. It won the lawsuit!

I (Peter Burgess) don't like obscene language ... but there is a time and place for everything, and conversation with Fox News is a reasoable place to lose it and use the sort of language that they deserve!
