How effective can this be with today's media?? (Score 1)

While I fully support objectivity and fact based analysis and decision making, I fear I am one of few who would rather make up their own mind than have their opinions handed down to them. Even if this group is somewhat successful in accomplishing their goals, the problem is that mass media (I know the internet has somewhat lessened its grip on american society) still has the ability to put whatever spin it wants when covering respective stories. Please do not try and tell me that anyone here buys into the objectivity of the "No-Spin Zone"! It all comes down to perception being reality. If all of the news channels portrayed this group as foolish/off centered/crazy/etc then without a doubt an overwhelmingly large portion of american citizens would believe that at face value. I agree that the removal of ideology and religion from our political system is important but I think it is much more difficult than some think. But hey - we gotta start somewhere right?!?!
