Can you imagine the likes of Rush Limbaugh or any of the other two dozen hateful loudmouths on the air today getting any kind of job in media 30 years ago?
Yes, in that we also had "commentators" (The Rush type) back then.
Remeber Walter Winchell; Heda Hopper; H.B. Kaltenborn?
Today, "Media" has been distorted to mean "...anyone with a mike/BLOG/webpage".
