Why no mention of communist ties with Van Jones? (vanity)

Posted on 09/05/2009 10:17:01 PM PDT by RightInEastLansing

Stories popping up every two seconds about his resignation, but not one mention of his affection for communism? Does this hit too close to home for the MSM to mention?

Being a communist was ok, it was being a truther that was unacceptable.

Fox News just reported it but no mention of his communist background.

AP wrote the article that all the outlets are using. Most news outlets don’t have a single news person working this weekend (true!) and what passes for news this weekend is copy ripped from the wire services.

Therefore, if the AP story didn’t have the details — and why would it, because they haven’t covered it to date — the rest of the outlets won’t report it.

By Tuesday, when the news staffs come back, this will be 2-3 days old and no one will care, possibly because some starlet will have exposed herself in public, or some singer went into rehab, etc.

That’s our job.

The MSM are communists themselves. Even those who don’t consciously think so, are incapable of rational thought, about the topic. They’re brainwashed (the useful idiots) or they’re LIARS.

Have you looked at Drudge’s website? Granted it’s not been updated for a while, but there a photo of some Venezuelan protest of Chavez. Big picture of Hugo as a pig.

Well. We’re the ones who need to be holding that “pig” picture. In this case, saying the “Communist” word.

Our media are useless. Have been for at least 15 years.

Forget them. If enough of us do that - they’ll go out of business. They’re mostly very near that, already.

What’s ironic is, none of them realize why.

All of my local news networks(ABC, CBS, NBC) have not talked about Van Jones at all. That is because all of the networks are in the tank for Obama. No matter what he does or who he associates with they will always defend the commie bastard

A fox news discussion group immediately claimed that it was his truther thing and that it was not because he’s a commie that he has to go.

Are you kidding me? FOX was the only network that has been exposing his radical ideologies and was the first to break the news that he was a self avowed Communist. Have you been hiding under a rock along with the MSM?
