Practice Practice Practice

Commenter Sorwell, in response to my previous post, asks an important question:

How do you get an increasingly limp media to cover *the reasons* something happened rather than merely present what did happen as something inexplicable an untied to any reasons?

How do you get to Carnegie Hall?

The answer is to talk about it. Talk about it some more. And then talk about it even more. Talk about it every day. Bring it up over and over and over again. Hit back on every bit of false reporting. Hit back on every bit of GOP spin. Leave nothing unanswered.

It will take a lot of work and a lot of time, but you can begin to change the dialog.

Just to be clear on this, when I say "a lot of time" I mean years. Conservatives are reaping the benefit of a program they started back in the 60s! That's the kind of time scale we have to think in.
