Looks like ABC is headed right into the cavern of irrelevance right behind See-BS.

Kerry lies and has confessed to war crimes, but it's not central to his efforts to win. Sho nuff! Maybe shoplifting would help.

This is exactly why the Democratic Party has become the Party of liars and cheats. The stupid press assumes or presents stories that every Republican is lying like Richard Nixon, and every Democratic candidate is always telling the truth.

Now, Republicans have even their truthful statements twisted so much they sound like lies.

The effect of this is that it has become easy for liars to take over and control the Democratic Party. It is or has begun to destroy the party from the inside.

I wrote emails yesterday, even called and talked to the President of ABC's secretary.

She knew why I was calling. Was polite, took my name and number.

Basically I told her I didn't need anybody to help me "evaluate" the news...I had ears and eyes. And that it was not in the "public interest" to do so, nor was it "the right thing" for a news organization to go beyond reporting the news and start trying to influence the electorate.

"Kerry distorts, takes out of context, and mistakes all the time, but these are not central to his efforts to win," Halperin wrote.

So when I turned on C-SPAN during the Dems' primary/caucus season and saw Kerry telling Iowa voters that Bush had just given an advocate of cross-burning a recess appointment to the federal bench, Kerry was just saying that for kicks - not in an effort to win???

Kerry intentionally distorted Judge Pickering's role in a case involving cross-burning. In other words, Kerry went out of his way to accuse both Bush and Pickering of being racists, even though there's absolutely no evidence to support that. To the suits at ABC, I guess that's no big deal.

A spokesman for ABC news insisted "we are not interested in taking sides, we are only interested in getting at the truth."

In the Bizarro world of the Media Wing of the Democratic Party, that isn't necessarily a denial of their slant towards Kerry. Note the key passage in Halperin's email:


"It's up to Kerry to defend himself, of course. But as one of the few news organizations with the skill and strength to help voters evaluate what the candidates are saying to serve the public interest, now is the time for all of us to step up and do that right."

The hatred these guys have for Bush has just made them stupid. They want him out so bad, they actually put their bias in writing for the whole world to see. If it weren't so dangerous, it would be funny.

This election isn't just about getting Bush elected. This election is about defeating the MSM.

The monumental distortions of the left wing television networks is not only a litany of lies, it has deeply divided our nation. If there is another civil war or dividing up of the U.S. into two or more nations, it will be the fault of the mass media who have spoon-fed communist propaganda. I know people who still rely upon the network news and they have an irrational hatred of Republicans and of Bush in particular.

An "affirmative action" program is needed for the MSM to promote diversity. The minorities grossly underrepresented are conservatives and republicans.

Boy, the media is being exposed left, right, and center. Oh wait, that should obviously be left.

Hitler, Mein Kampf

" The task of propaganda does not lie in a scientific education of the individual but in pointing out to the masses definite facts, processes, necessities, etc., the significance of which in this way is first to be brought within the masses' range of vision. "
