Why is it that the media (almost) always prints negative or misleading
articles about Realtors? There's a few good one's like the USA Today 2003
article, but for the most part these idiots are leading people to the
slaughter. Meanwhile rather than boycotting the media, Realtors waste their
money advertising in these rags. Is it that sophisticated investors are
doing a heavy amount of press releases to assure the public remains
unprotected? Are the owners of the newspapers (or the owners of the owners)
who are most probably heavily into investment, trying to play these people?
Or are they simply just telling the public what they think will interest
them?
