Good story on the nat'l news tonight,

about the Saturday Evening Post, which went out of business, after over 150 years, in the late 60's. It was no accident. The SEP, Look, and Life magazines were ALL put out of business, by the (Repub) Nixon admin, cuz they kept showing pics, and writing stories of the war in Viet Nam, (before the internet), and the Pubs didn't want the people to see what was really happening as people were killed and wounded, far away, BUT, the war made big $$ for the Pubs. Sorta like Iraq. Nixon and his pals raised postage rates so big, photo type news mags were put out of business. VOILA! No more news coverage and pics, and the Pubs kept the war going for a few more years. Some things never change....
