The federal government should not regulate violence on television.

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

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 ...

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 ...

The American news media did not appropriately handle coverage leading up to the war in Iraq.

The media and congress should have done more investigation and less pandering to the polls.

Tim Russert's death did merit the media coverage it received.

Absolutely. Now, more TV news personalities should try to emulate him.

Newspaper organizations are necessary to maintain journalistic standards.

Yes, but I believe newspaper organizations need to update their format and delivery system. However, all "news" media needs to get back to reporting the news rather than trying to participate in and s...

The New Yorker cover featuring Barack and Michelle Obama is not effective satire.

I think it was highly disrespectful to Sen. Obama but the New Yorker is equally as guilty of being another of those media outlets that robs the electorate of legitimate dialogue on the very serious is...
