Thanks for the link NightOwl
There's a book "Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television" , by Jerry Mander that you might find interesting. Although the focus is on television, the arguments can be applied to other media outlets.

Nope. I haven't believed what the media says for many years.
It's easy to see the propaganda if you refuse to be gullible. Subscriptions to Adbusters, Mother Jones, Ms. and similar truth-telling journals really helps, too (or if you can't afford it, an account at the library will suffice).

Television... have not seen it for over a year. The box sits unused taking up valuable CD space. Really should kick it to the curb...
I have long realized shows, movies and whatever on TV are merely vehicles to show adds. The reality is if they show enough 'entertainment', people will also sit through the neccisary addds that keep the network profits rising.
As for the actual news?...
Ever watched the film arlington road?
It will change how you perceive the news media too.
