Dean gazumping illustrates awesome destructive power of corporate media
If a mildly progressive, Internet-driven, young white middle class-centered, movement-like campaign such as Dean’s -- flush with money derived from unconventional sources, backed by significant sections of labor, reinforced by big name endorsements and surging with upward momentum -- can be derailed in a matter of weeks at the whim of corporate media, then all of us are in deep trouble.
The Dean beat-down should signal an intense reassessment of media’s role in the American power structure.
