Speaking of the power of communication, market demand and free enterprise has proven itself to be a powerful voice in critiques of the MSM.

GM, possibly in response to the LA's hutzpah to demand GM drop it's Chief Executive/Chairman Rick Wagoner, pulled all advertising from the west coast liberal rag.

"General Motors decided this week to cease advertising in the Los Angeles Times based on strongly voiced objections from our dealers in California about factual errors and misrepresentations in the Times' editorial coverage," said GM spokesman Brian Akre on Thursday.



Gotta love it....
