Mainstream Media Slanders Code Red Health Care Protesters
The Lid/Various ^ | 3/20/2010 | The Lid

If a sports columnist like Tony" Kornheiser gets suspended for making fun of a colleague's clothing, shouldn't CBS White House Correspondent Mark Knowler be fired for describing the people who showed up to protest the Obamcare bill with a sexual slur?

Approximately 30,000 people showed up at the Capitol today to protest the Progressive/ Democratic Party attack on Amercan Freedom. The most incredible part of this rally is that it was put together in less than two days.

The Mainstream Media of course gave their usual skewed version of the rally.

I’ve posted this elsewhere on the forum tonight. On my way home from the rally I was listening to the local DC news station, WTOP. Out of that 30,000 plus people, the only person in the crowd they found to interview was a disgusted Lib who called us short-sighted. Then the said the dems probably have the votes.

I truly, truly despise the media.

The media are TRAITORS who would sell their souls and their mothers. These people have no conscience whatsoever.

I do not even bother anymore getting news from the MSM. The only say CNN is good for is when a natural disaster hits.

the media are nothing more the errand boys for obama- nothing more....

I heard the reports today, nary a mention about the tens of thousands who protested the media’s dear leader today...go to ATT.net news page- big story about “1000’s show up to protest on the anniversary of the Iraq war in DC”...nothing about the 30x more people in town to protest the media’s emperor...

they are nothing more than obama’s errand boys...another reason to get angry and keep fighting...

Oh yes, the “anti war” protesters who wore CCCP t-shirts, or carried signs from the ANSWER group. They are sincere people who only want peace. (sarcasm) One report said there were 10,000 of them. So of course they are more newsworthy than the 30,000 real Americans who were also in DC today!

I just got back from the DC rally. The main lawn held 40,000 and there were many on the outside areas adjacent to the main lawn. A better estimate is about 50,000 people which I would say is pretty good support for three days notice.

Outstanding, and I can believe that figure. NBC with their 2,000 count was so absurd that people started laughing when they heard that rather than becoming upset about it.
