Journalists have long referred to themselves as the "4th branch of government." We on the left should be ever grateful for their support and efforts in bringing the progressive ideals to the common folk. Without the voice of the media helping to keep that ideal formost in the minds of voters, we would have never been successful in enlisting the youth into the rebellion of the 60's against the conservative establishment and American nationalism and patriotism.
