The Media Research Center, a conservative media watchdog organization led by Brent Bozell, has launched a petition drive demanding mainstream media outlets tell the truth and "rededicate themselves to unbiased reporting".

Sign Our Petition and Get A Free Bumper Sticker!

The liberal media are in panic mode. The Left’s experiment in socialism is failing. Americans are waking up, rising up for freedom and limited government.

In the coming months, we can expect continued efforts by the liberal media to distort the truth about the economy, about conservatives, and about the Obama agenda all in an effort to help keep the march toward European-style socialism on track.

Tell the Truth! is the Media Research Centers response to this all-out assault on our freedom and our way of life. It is our declaration of war on the outrageous levels of liberal bias in the media today.

Everyone that signs the petition will receive a free Tell The Truth! bumper sticker to display proudly.

The Petition States
I am signing this petition because I am tired of being told half-truths by a liberal media that are more interested in pushing a left-wing agenda than in informing me. I want and expect to hear the truth from the news media whether or not it fits their personal ideology.

I am calling on the media to rededicate themselves to unbiased reporting and to adopt internal procedures to monitor their own coverage for accuracy and balance.

Yeah, this will get the MSM trembling. Petitions and bumper stickers. We got a Monty Python skit going here.

[jdawg2010]

Yeah, I believe this link is in the article. Thanks.

In the future, please place your material into our bloggers forum.

Thanks,

Welcome. I sent you a private message, too.

On the bright side and under the right circumstances, all MRC evidence could be used to easily and justifiably defund PBS types, ensure no public funds for newspapers, and objectively ensure elimination of the Fairness Doctrine via the courts.

If a tree falls in the forest....what a waste of time.

And who cares! You can see how successful the msm was in trashing O'Donnell to the point where she only made, what, over $750,000 in about 24 hours of winning the election. They are so yesterday.

Even if a miracle happened and they decided to try it, their credibility is sooooooooo far gone it will be generations before they are reestablished.

The old saying goes, "It takes a lot of 'atta-boys' to overcome one 'aw-$hit'."

[Eaker]

Yeah, I believe this link is in the article.

All I see is a link to a myspace page.

Why not stop excerpting and post the real link here like Larry did?

Or are you trolling for blog hits?

[FlingWingFlyer]

The MSM’s massas down at the DNC wouldn’t allow them to tell the truth even if they wanted to.

[jdawg2010]

It’s not a link to a myspace page. I don’t even go there.

So true! They could tell me the sky is blue and I would be trying to figure out the spin, lies, omissions....

I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow.

Speaking of telling the truth. A veteran DC news anchor was fired for telling the truth about Obama and his donations from BP.

I have worked with them (MSN). They don’t know what the truth is.
