Do you feel like the media jumps the gun?

The media has too tight of a hold on the US. We should count ourselves lucky since we do have media access from other places and the government does not control everything we see, read, and hear. However, this does not give the media the right to say certain decisions have been made when they have not. The media needs to report the truth - it is their duty - and not jump the gun. What do you think: Does the media really control us? Do they push decisions to be final before they really are? Do you think the media needs to have more rules and regulations?

I think the media has their nose where it does not belong alot of times. I think they take things and go to extremes with alot of times also before they actually know the true facts about things. They then spread the word to others and it all gets blowed out of proportion. I think they do need to be regulated.
