Republican blogger: Can we now dispense with some myths?

... but if you cannot find an outlet in the mainstream media to carry that message, as should be obvious to any objective observer in the current climate...

The highest rated cable news network is conservative!

We need to figure out how to get hippies to watch though. We need more boobies.

The hottest chicks are all on FNC.

This is one of the most important points from the OP that needs to be addressed immediately:

3) Media - We need to destroy the current media. They must be punished for their abdication of their duties within a free society. Establish alternative sources to reach the voters with our message. Financially ruin the mouthpieces of the Democrats. Buy the New York Times and fire their editorial board, replacing it with one leaning right.

In a democratic society, especially with the openness of the internet, that will definitely not work. If you buy a popular media source and give it your bias, most people will abandon it for something else. The media landscape is too large to control without resorting to a China-like censorship regime, which in the US would be unconstitutional.

If you want people to support the GOP, forcing them to through propaganda is a poor way to do it. It will just generate more resentment. Instead the party needs to find a message that appeals to more people.

The message is one thing, but if you cannot find an outlet in the mainstream media to carry that message, as should be obvious to any objective observer in the current climate, then you must target the media itself.

And I disagree that people would abandon a publication like the NYT. In the UK, the Times used to lean to the right, but now leans the other way. Have its readers deserted it? No. Where else can you get The Times crossword? It's small things like this that can endear the loyalty of many readers to a publication such as the NYT, or The Times.

Most media sources are commerical. They make money from advertising. How much they can charge advertisers depends on how large of an audience they have. If there really was a strong market for news with a conservative bias, there would definetly be more media outlets with that format. But there really isn't.

Thus my point still stands. If you try to force a mainstream media outlet to give news with a conservative bias, the market will react accordingly. Its audience demographics will change, those who like the format will go to the media outlet, those who don't have an array of other choices to go to.

As to your point with The Times. Was it changing its readers or were its readers changing it?

Dimocrats shouldn't be so smug. What's happened to the Republicans this year has happened to the Dims more than once in my lifetime. It will happen again; the pendulum swings both ways.

I figure it out....had to reach into the deepest corners of my mind though. Found the answer right next to an image of Angelina Jolie's lips.
