GMA Promotes Michelle Obama’s School Lunch Program

On Monday, ABC’s Good Morning America provided First Lady Michelle Obama’s school lunch program, entitled the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, with some free publicity.

Co-host George Stephanopoulos touted how “new federal guidelines pushed by the First Lady have cafeterias serving up healthier foods. And a new study finds those lunches may be better than the ones parents pack for their kids.”The ABC co-host then turned to contributor Claire Shipman, wife of former White House Press Secretary Jay Carney, to further promote the study’s findings:

School cafeteria lunches. For years, they've been the butt of jokes. But this morning a new study suggests they may actually be healthier than those good old brown bag lunches prepared at home.

Shipman never mentioned that the study received a $3.7 million grant from the USDA’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture, which runs Michelle Obama’s healthy food initiative. Instead of reporting on this detail, the ABC correspondent eagerly played up the supposed unbiased results of the study:

The school district where I worked complied with Michelle's tyranny:

A 90lb cheerleader and a 200lb football player got the same "healthy" portions, and no seconds!

It was just revealed a few days ago that The Weather Channel has more viewers in the morning than Morning Joe and some CNN show combined.

Methinks TWC is not far behind GMA.

How crazy is the media.

Clintonista Stephanopolous gives glowing reviews to Obama’s school lunch program. And he hands it off to Shipman, wife of an Obamabot, to further push this lunch program as being so wonderful.

Any bias in the media at all????

The sampling of the lunches wouldn’t pass the smell test in any elementary statistics class.

Let’s see the GMA morons not only live on moochelles plan but actually be shown eating the crap on camera. It’s really easy to support something that doesn’t affect you personally.

They know better,
and not persisting would be admitting that they don’t know better.

Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act

Act?

Act of what?

Act of Congress?

I think this is part of why the Dems are doing so poorly. I found out a lady we know works in a public school lunchroom and the Michelle guidelines are hated by everyone, staff and students alike. They are not the law, but if the school doesn’t abide by the rules the state doesn’t get their federal dollars back. It’s actually a bit of a nightmare for them. A lot of kids just choose not to eat.

Did you know that ALL bread has to be whole wheat? I’m a huge fan of whole wheat but even I know that’s never gonna fly even with me. Not ALL of it (even pizza crust).

This insanity is turning huge numbers of democrats against obama and, through association, against democrats in general.

Liberals have a tin ear. Viewers don’t like Moochelle’s school lunch program now that it has been experienced.

Keep up the good work, you smarties at GMA. Hahaha
