Does television accurately reflect race?
No. I have been black for over 60 years and I have not yet met a black African-American (that's not a misprint) who remotely remind me of George Jefferson, the family on Good Times, Martin, or a host ...

What impact will Oprah Winfrey's endorsement of Barack Obama have on her career?
No long term effect at all.

Should bloggers publish information from 'closed' political fund-raisers that they have been invited to as donors, not as journalists?
No. If I was a politician holding or attending a fund raiser and a blogger did that, that would be the last invitation that blogger (or reporter for that matter) would ever receive from my campaign.

Should political candidates allow the media to interview their young children?
That should be up to the parents.

Blogs are credible sources of news.

Just like radio and TV; some are.

The federal government should not regulate violence on television.

We, the people, should but using the remote control or channel selector.

Don Imus' comments regarding the Rutgers women's basketball team do not warrant his termination.

There should be a blogger code of conduct.

kenjacks3329 took a stand.

Laws allowing journalists to protect confidential sources should apply to bloggers.

If the blog is functioning as a press outlet (disseminating information is ways consistent with the legal definition of a press organization) and bloggers are functioning in roles consistent with role...

Bloggers should not be held responsible for comments posted on their blogs by others.

In general, no; however, if a posting is blatantly offensive or libelous to a person or group of people, the blog moderator should remove the offensive or libelous comment, warn the person who posted ...

The Internet should not be regulated by one governing body.

The internet should not be regulated by any government entity.

Current restrictions limiting the concentration of media ownership are not reasonable; there should be greater restriction.

Five major corporations control most of the news we get through major media outlets. The stories we hear (not withstanding Fox) are essentially the same from all of the mass-media outlets; that is why...

Vladimir Putin should not be Time Magazine's Person of the Year 2007.

I don't know what he did to deserve it. You might say "he would not be my person of the year".

Journalists should not reveal the identities of anonymous sources who have misled them.

No, but they should verify the information with at least one more source and should not publish anything that has not been fully verified through credible sources.

"Checkbook journalism" is an acceptable way to pursue news stories.

Just as much as the US paying the Sunni insurgents and Shiite militia not to shoot at our troops and calling the "surge" a success. Stop the money in news and the sources dry up; stop the payments in ...
