Cenk-- the first change needed is the story you tell about how our system works-- the story through which you interpret what is, or is not, working-- a la George Lakoff.  Every show I hear your criticism about what the Democrats "should" do, or what the press "should" do.  You are trying to fit what is happening in the country into a tale about equal access to a mass media which is altruistic, and vigilant to the needs of the common man.  In this story "Democrats" are a opposition party challenging a corrupt and broken system, rather than politicians that system has created.  Rather than a story about how either institution is broken or incompetent or corrupt, it may be better to analyze what is happening through a narrative that politics and media are a propoganda extension of excessive wealth and hereditary power.  Just try it sometime, listen to your show, and each time you get angry about what isn't being done, or why people are stupid, force yourself to say, "propaganda has worked because..." 
Here is an example.  Go the the Harlem Globetrotters game and instead of screaming and complaining about how the Generals aren't playing good defense, say to yourself "it's rigged, and the Generals would get fired if they blocked a trick shot..."
Its hard to change the dreams of being a success in the "media" to being useful to citizens, and not as lucrative as you know, so I admire you.  But after awhile, the ranting and raving about how a "pro-wrestler" should have won just isn't all that helpful--  because it is a sham, and you know it down deep.  70 percent of the population supports women making their own medical decisions, and its not the "R" brand beating us down, it the propaganda machine of which Mr. Orwell writes.  And its not a conspiracy, its the way that power has maintained itself forever, just ask Machiavelli.
See you in Denver.
