Now since the election is officially over now, what will the media be discussing now?

I really hope it's not celebrities again. What do you think they will be discussing? List anything, BESIDES politics.

That which they think will sell the most newspapers! Y'gotta remember, they and the electronic media - radio and television - ain't out there to keep you informed, they're out there to make money for their right-wing neo-fascist owners.
Oh, they'll do a story now and then on the environment, public health, public infrastructure, public education, elder-care - but those stories won't begin to probe these issues in any detail. They'll mostly talk about inconsequential shlt like who gang-banged Paris and why Angelina's boyfriend is fed up with her and which big-name sports flash-in-the-pan just got busted for doing dope or steroids...in other words, sewerage as usual will fill the papers and flood the airwaves!

World news...or,you know, important things.
Hamas bombing Israel, Russia threatening missile deployment, Middle East terrorism, genocide in the Congo...all the not important stuff eclipsed by a popularity contest. Or celebrity gossip. Eh.

I suppose much of the news will be centered around economic and financial issues. There will also be fawning coverage of Obama's cabinet choices from Chris "Tingling Leg" Matthews.

They're probably exhausted after running their successful media campaign to get Obama elected. I suspect they will continue their witch hunt for all conservative minded people.

The love fest will continue and the suppression of Obama & Biden mistakes will continue to go unreported.

How bad the recession is, and how bad for business it was that the Democrats now control the Prez, House, and Senate. Look at the markets now...

Oh, they will still salivate over Obama for awhile.. thing is.. who cares.. and who with any pride at all would watch such biased television..no matter what party you supported. For they will turn on Obama.. you can bet on it.. and then he won't love them quite so much.
Shame on the media...

Oh no. They will STILL be discussing it. We have at least another 3 weeks to go.

The Media will go back to discussing everything it normally discusses, about anything and everything that is currently going on in the World at any given time?...

I doubt it will be Obama's Aunt, living illegally in the U.S. in Public Housing in Boston....with enough tax payer money to send him $265 to his campaign (which is illegal)....What I wonder if how many ACORN workers will be in the White House ...hey, maybe be will put his illegal Aunt on his payroll, there you go.

Are you kidding? It will continue to be Kissing "That Guy's" azz 24/7 and saying what a "great moment in history" this is.
It's enough to make me vomit.

News (except Fox) isn't about celebrity gossip. They are always talking politics.

Maybe the missiles Russia is setting up.
