'We' let 'them' get away with...
We let the News and Record disintegrate into a nothingness of non-journalism
We let the Rhino sink into propaganda
We let the mayor and friends pilfer higher taxes without transparency
How many know Greensboro's City Council voted to raise taxes this year?
Did the TV news stations report it?
Did whomever who covers City Council for dwindling numbers of local paper and television readers and viewers not even understand the implications of their malpractice and passivity until the pain hits the majority?
Distracted 'we' are by the technological powers that be
The "Great and Powerful Oz" didn't put anyone else's interests before his own until he was called out
Same with the local oligarchs behind the curtains
Cowardice is on exhibit by our local press
The parasites among us roam free as what was our fourth rail abdicates responsibility
"Fourth branch of government

"Fourth branch of government
The concept of the media or press as a fourth branch
stems from a belief that the news media's responsibility
to inform the populace is essential to the healthy functioning of the democracy.
The phrase "Fourth Estate"
may be used to emphasize the independence of the press
particularly when this is contrasted with the press as a "fourth branch".
