Corporate media marginalizes political dissent in the U.S.

CNN.com - Electoral College set to certify election - Dec 10, 2004: "Few mainstream politicians dispute Bush's victory, and the incumbent's 3.5 million-vote margin nationwide was wider than any of the reported problems, which included insufficient or incomplete provisional ballots and, in some places, brazen partisan shenanigans.

But that is not stopping a disparate assortment of personalities -- prominent among them Democratic congressman John Conyers Jr. of Michigan, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and presidential candidates of the Green and Libertarian parties -- from questioning the accuracy of certified results and demanding investigations."

The "mainstream" media has done a good job of marginalizing dissent about the results of this election. Clearly there were problems in Ohio and other than Keith Olberman of MSNBC none of them seem to have the balls to treat it as a legitimate news story.

Is there any "major" media source in the United States that cares more about the future of democracy in our country more than their financial bottom line? I seriously have my doubts these days. Please someone prove me wrong.
