"The editorial deplores the way that journalism has lately been failing in this mission (of presenting dissent): 'Rather than engage speech that strays too far from the dangerously narrow borders of our public discourse, the gatekeepers of that discourse—our mass media—tend to effectively shout it down, marginalize it, or ignore it.'"
"Big Media" is in the hands of some 9 conglomerates and it is only in the wilds of the Internet that one can find--like needles in a haystack--the strongest voices of dissent. Is that the way it should be, and what does it mean to the growing trend of efforts to circumscribe/limit Internet access and usage?
