Obama's FTC plan to reinvent America's news media

First it was the car companies, then the banks, then investment firms, now the newspapers.  Is there nothing that the Obama Administrtion does not want to control?  Is there nothing that those "brave" defenders of the First Amendment won't bow down to?  From the LA Times

What hasn't been widely-known, until now, is that a year ago the new Democrat administration of Barack Obama launched a major internal study intended to design a major government rescue plan for the nation's financially-troubled information media, primarily newspapers.

That strident sound you hear are the alarms going off in minds and offices across the country: Government helping the press? Which press? How help? In return for what?

Well, two years ago who'd have thought the feds would own General Motors with major holdings in a bunch of banks and financial institutions, reshaped the healthcare industry, spent $787 billion on who-knows-what to create some jobs, have rewritten a package of new financial regulations to corral Wall Street and still not be securing the U.S.-Mexico border?

This wouldn’t be happening if Obama was President. Impeach Sarah Palin!
If only Barack Obama had been elected and old John McCain hadn’t died, we wouldn’t have a clueless radical demagogue in the White House whose only talent is giving a speech to fire up the rubes.

If only we had listened to the media.

Oh wait ….

Great comment from the readers of the LA Times blog: 
The Democrat party and the press have been sleeping together for years. Obama just plans to put a ring on it- make an honest woman out of CNNMSNBCCBSABCNBC


BUT if you put a ring on a whore, she's still a whore- just with jewelery
