they are mostly lapdogs for liberals, since they all seem to have been educated by the same socialist type professors with the same buzz words to know each other by...\n\ndont pay any attention to news that doesnt give you competing sides of every issue and let you make your own mind up...

They each appeal to different groups. Those that live on the internet sometimes read the ads there while those who use print media will on occasion take a further look at the ads. Best advice know who your audience is and go there.

Politics is the candidates' quest to persuade the voters to elect him/her. The ad campaigns, news conferences, and the debates. The ordinances you mentioned is the legislative process of governing. The constituents can only influence, not control, the way an elected official governs. If the community gets angry enough at the leaders, the community will vote them out of the next election. This is the system of a republic as opposed to pure democracy, which is simply majority rule, as seen in California's proposition system.

Read the newspaper or watch the news. Follow the politicians. They always have a scandal behind them.

Check out foxnews.com. They did an extensive investigative report on post war Iraq a while back.  Based upon what they found the country is thriving.\n\nAs for the media they look for stories that have two factors.  First the story must have an excitement factor in order to get an audience.  Second it must fall within limits of what is acceptable to the liberals who own the media outlets.  Except for FOX and some local independent papers and news stations most media follows these two unwritten but mutually understood rules.

Everything changes. My socio-political views are vastly different than they were before the Viet Nam war.\n\nI prefer to consume information from all points of the political compass rather than be one of the lemmings being preached to by the choir. I get info from Fox News, NBC, ABC, CBS, Christian Science Monitor, PBS...you name it, I'll read it. Then I put it through my BS filter and do my best to get a truer picture than what just one or two news outlets would present. I hate the thought of falling into line on an issue based on political bias.

Political views are based off of one's morals and values - THAT cannot be helped. Where a lot of people go wrong, though, is in seeking media outlets that support their point of view rather than challenge it.\n\nTo be truly informed, one must look at the so-called liberal media and the so-called conservative media - with a gain of salt. One should do as much research as possible and then decide if the evidence shape his views or if he lets his views shape the evidence.

Being the geek that I am, I follow politics.  It's actually pretty interesting once you get into it, and you get to feel good knowing that you're informed and involved.\n\nPlus, it's a really easy way to impress people in conversation.

What you need to do is search out an author named Duncan Watts.  He is an associate professor of sociology at Columbia University and has written a few simple books in the subject.  My favorite, and the one I teach from, is Understanding American Government and Politics (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0719073278 this is the brand new edition).  I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to look past the media and focus on the processes themselves.

So far media on both sides have done a lot to create conflicts. Hopefully they learn to play role in conflict resolution as well.
