The only story they’ll “discover” is how a mean-spirited and vindictive GOP-controlled House of Representatives is standing in the way of “moving forward” by not rubber-stamping the panoply of spending programs and debt-ceiling increases.
That will last two years.
The Democrat/Liberal-Media will show no mercy towards the GOP. They are focused on a socialist utopia, and they will stomp on proverbial (and perhaps literal) conservative heads to get it.
The media has a problem with attacking large groups. They prefer to create a boogeyman like Gingrich and just attacking him.
Romney was a weak candidate but he had still could have won the election had there been a modicum of journalism in the MSM. We conservatives often live in a bubble, reading our blogs, National Review, Fox News, conservative columnists on Townhall and the postings here on Free Republic. What we have to realize is that probably 65% of the electorate never has any exposure to these news sources. They either don’t watch news at all or, often out of custom, they watch the network news. And when the Networks decided to go all in for Obama in 2008, it became almost an impossibility to overcome the fraud that they perpetrated on the American people. They hid the truth. They spun for Obama when he screwed up. They attacked conservatives. They manufactured news to cast Obama in the best light and his opponents in the worst.
It will take circumstances even more dire than we are currently in or a dynamic leader in the mould of Ronald Reagan to overcome the institutional bias of the MSM. America is on the precipice but hasn’t yet hit rock bottom. When that day comes, we better hope that the GOP can discover a candidate who can actually inspire passion in the American people - an individual who is currently not on the horizon.
