New MSM Term ~ "Retail Media"
Submitted by zamboni on Wed, 12/12/2007 - 23:11
Retail Media is the perfect description to replace MSM. Retail Media is profit driven and corporate ownership that benefit most from the status quo.
Stalinesque Media is a term I often use because they use the same media tactics Stalin used in his "democratic" elections. Making the opposition look like "kooks" and controling the air time, Stalinesque is offensive and only to be used in arguments or around friends.
In Public I think Retail Media works well.
Retail Media is the best choice. It is accurate, non-offensive, and suitable for the history books.
Retail Media?

Re:
We've already been saying "Old Media" and have seen it used once outside of the Ron Paul forums now. It doesn't need any explanation. It's simple and to the point. Also, it insinuates there is a new, better media. I'm hoping everyone joins in with this. It won't take long before the term takes off.
I Like "Ministry of Truth"
For those of you who haven't read the book 1984 I highly suggest it.

no offensive
I like offensive. Corporate Boob Tube Media. When I was growing up they called it the Boob Tube. How about Box Media because the TV and it's obsolete technology.
Prepare & Share the Message of Freedom through Positive-Peaceful-Activism.
"Big Box Media"? Tie
"Big Box Media"? Tie together two sick-inducing concepts.

OLD MEDIA
The Talking Heads are in another world. To give them the title of Retail Media would be an upgrade on the disgrace they bring to media. They try to slam down our throats their idea of the leading candidates. Imagine a clod like the Huck being sponsored by these idiots. They are cowed by their owners, they know it, but what is one to do. Should they quit on principal or should they be like Colin Powell, who sold his soul at the tail end of his career. They are a sick people, love the power they believe they have, and hopefully they will wake up some day to try to explain to their grandchildren that had they been single without responsibility and not worried about their job, they would have approached this whole fantasy a lot differently. They are all hanging out at the fancy restaurant's and drowning their bs in food wine and trying to keep up with their rotund bodies. They are definitely the Old, Old Media and should get themselves updated on why most people have stopped their newspaper, magazine subscriptions and decided they can get all the information they need in life on the Internet.
Definitely a dying breed, so OLD MEDIA suits them fine.
To give you an idea, I received a subscription for $10.00 Total which included a Financial Magazine every two or three weeks plus Barrons for about six months. Although I subscribed, it is a waste of money. The magazine sucks and the Barron's is same old same old. They are all in the dark ages.
I like
it
BSM
What about Biased Stream Media?
Retail Media
Love it.
CCM (Corporate Controlled Media) seems too conspiracy theorist.
Old Media really isn't.
Retail Media, or Old Media
What is the vote, which will stick?
