The Corruption of the Media

This past weekend I attended comedian Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity. He ended with a very serious speech condemning the media for its out of control amplification of the United State's problems. The country runs a 24 hour political analysis of every single little problem that comes up. It has caused the country to exist in a state of panic and distrust. The media, though a wonderful tool, pits us against each other and causes us not to work together. Seems to me that we need to refocus on the positive as opposed to the negative. I encourage you to watch the speech. Stewart said it better than I ever could.
