This and anothr cartoon by KAL- showing Uncle Sam on a mortorcycle that may go left or right- all very cute BUT- isn't it time the media realized that you play a role in this? You act as if you did not have a point of view- BUT YOU DO!!
The media should put presure upon pols to do something for the country and stop bickering- anything esle is just retrograde.
Sunpapers?
How about pitching in to help this country?
Media needs to be self critical.

to the media:
The vote for Obama held a message for the media: I think were you
running for office- you'd be out with Romney....and I speak of all media
but for "Democracy Now".
Be bold enough to: realize that it is human to have a point of view- you
should "get in touch with that". Do you think that a "reporter" does not
have a point of view?
Do not cover the obviously wrong person just because he or she claims to
be a "spokesperson"....like purely do nothing and obstructionist/no
compromise congress persons.
Do your own work and stop relying on faulty polls.
Call ideologues- feel free to confront- you come across, except for the
obviously horrible right wing radio persons- as too polite.
Be more helpful to those of us yr listeners and readers.
