Maybe the real journalists finally talked back to their producers. Maybe the advertisers spoke up to the executives. Maybe the Bush-McCain messages have finally become so unreal that even Republican-sympathizers among media circles are offended. Maybe the liberal blogosphere is finally being heard and supported more than the mainstream media.
Or, maybe the reality of the Obama change is finally sinking in and the corporations are wanting not to be on his bad side.
They know what it is like to get on the bad side of the Bush Administration. They are seeing what it is to be in the bad side of McCain. Now they may actually hope that Obama will win, knowing they will then have less to fear in terms of retaliation.
Now if only the Jim Adkissons of the world (the folks who think it is open season on anything liberal, even Unitarians), can somehow be reached and dissuaded from fulfilling the fantasies of O'Reilly, Limbaugh, and some of the other outspoken commentators. . . .
