Bryan Keefer wrote an interesting op-ed piece in Sunday's edition of The Washington Post exploring why he and other 20/30-somethings aren't reading the papers and watching the TV news. Of course, he also managed to plug his own Web sites. Nice work, kiddo. If you don't feel like reading or simply like having me recap it for you, his analysis goes like this: Today's media pack is full of b.s. that it shovels on behalf of the powerful people who unload it on them, so it takes people like him and me to give you the straight scoop.

Yet another reason why people enjoy reading The Onion or watching The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Those venues exist to spotlight how full of bull the mainstream media is.
