Bias: We were wrong. The media elite did in fact vet this president, but they covered up what they found. And now that citizen journalists are digging it up, they're trying to rebury it.
Exhibit A is the controversial video of Barack Obama praising and hugging radical Harvard law professor Derrick Bell. The media knew it existed four years ago and conspired with academia to hide it to get Obama elected.
"We hid this during the 2008 campaign," confessed Harvard law professor Charles Ogletree. PBS had it then, but cut both the audio and the hug in a report on Obama's Harvard days. The footage served as wallpaper. Now that Breitbart.com has put the entire video online, the major media have gone into damage-control mode for Obama.
PBS claims, disingenuously, "there's nothing new about the clip." NBC's Andrea Mitchell misled viewers by claiming Bell was "not a radical firebrand" but a "distinguished professor."

Why don’t we understand this; The media elites that vetted Obama are Communists so Briebart’s video is just a big “so what” to them.
What is illustrative is that they full well knew this, framed it a way that was palatable to the voters and they sucked it up.
“Obama has a horrible agenda!”
Yes, he does. If you read through this thread it starts to reveal that agenda.

What Else Are Media Hiding?
1) Obama’s Chicago Bath House escapades
2) Obama and Kal Penn
3) Obama’s Real Father—Frank Marshall Davis
4) Obama the Sunni Muslim
5) Obama’s coke-head days
6) Obama’s missing years at Columbia University
7) Any Obama off the cuff remark
8) Obama’s duel citizenship(Indonesia)
I am a little cynical of all these videos. I will never ever vote for Obama. I will never believe a word he says. I don’t think he does things without politcal motive, instead of service to our beautiful country. I just think these videos will never convince Obama followers. The Rev Wright video was enough for me, I would have thought it was enough for anyone, but unfortunately I think this country might already be in serious trouble.
Harvard has a long record of tokenism. Nothing more than that. BTW, with respect to Harvard, they recruited me ~ gave me an acceptance.
The Breitbart video also elicited a “so what” from our friends at NRO. No big deal, they said. Obama has grown since then. Really?
Since you are not an alumnus of Harvard what they do should be of little importance to you.
Try to be more positive. Every time you get the urge to malign a school you never attended, instead post something positive about a school where you actually studied.
Makes one kind of understand why Obama’s grades are a state secret...he likely was just more black window dressing...this time as president of the law reveiw.
No birth certificate...no passport records...no college grades or thesis...no investigation of his perhaps several social security numbers.
Rumors are out there that Barack/Barry lived in the foreign student dorm at Occidental. Nobody in the press is interested in any of this.
Andrew Breitbart is dead and Rush is fighting for his commercial life...a coincidence?
This provides context for why he is horrible and gives his prior supporters a reason to leave him without feeling like they didn't do their homework.
Wait until they show zero standing with the foreign aide group of Harvard students with a sign wanting more funding, in 1981.
The media knew he was registered as a foreign student. They have covered it up.
You’re not wrong...most voters don’t care about Obama’s past...but this helps take the media out of this campaign.
If we can show most people that the msm can’t be trusted to report the truth about Obama...it’s a start to forcing others to look beyond the media lies.
This stuff will never in itself defeat Obama...but enough of it will defeat the media...and once Obama’s media screen is gone, we can get to the truth about this guy.
Media refuses to report the truth about Obama because they are controlled by the Democrat Party. The media will not give up the special gifts they receive for doing what they are told.
The country will be trained to hate Conservatives and trained to love Liberals. Hollywood and T.V. programs have been doing the dirty work for years and years.
So, little miss snooty, do you imagine people have to attend Harvard to give a darned about it?
It used to be a useful national resource.
Get OFF of this JUNK NOW!!!
We look like CLOWNS going after this stuff...
Obama has a horrible record!
Obama has a horrible agenda!
Did it ever occur to you that his horrible record/agenda may have something to do with his ideology, and that his ideology may have something to do with the aforementioned “Junk”?
No, you're wrong. It exposes the "trusted media" as liars. The people who can open their eyes to the truth, the ones we need to "convert", don't like being lied to.
Hell, they ran Trent Lott out of the Senate for saying nice things about an old man at his birthday party.
You've put it together plainly, opentalk, and it's still being missed, even by the new media.
The old media are just gangsters helping out their criminal friends.
