MS DNC

Media Bias: MSNBC would be fairer and more balanced with Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean on the air instead of Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews. Where is its "Fairness Doctrine"?

After the Senate's immigration amnesty bill lost for the second time last month, Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott, a Republican from Mississippi, complained: "Talk radio is running America," and "we have to deal with that problem."

Dealing with it could mean letting liberal Democrats such as Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California and John Kerry of Massachusetts revive the so-called Fairness Doctrine, to once again force broadcasters to give "equal time" to varying political viewpoints.

“Good evening. A president who lied us into a war and, in so doing, needlessly killed 3,584 of our family and friends and neighbors . . . has tonight freed from the prospect of prison the only man ever to come to trial for one of the component felonies in what may be the greatest crime of this young century.”

Bwhahahaha.

Olbermann once again proves what a fruitcake he is.

On the socialist/liberal/left/Democrat side of the political spectrum there is the majority of the print press, virtually all of the broadcasting networks, most of the publishing industry, the education establishment, institutions of higher education and almost all government entities, agencies, bureaus, departments and sections.

To counter this overwhelming leftist bias, on the American side is FOX cable network, a relatively few talk radio stations, a handful of syndicated conservative journalists, a few non-left authors and writers and a celeb or two.

To the socialist/left this is not fair. The left recognizes that it cannot compete with the right for listeners and viewers. And so the Democrats, who represent the socialist/left in America, are reverting to their old tricks of defeating the opposition by legislative acts.

It’s not a matter of “fairness” to the left, it is a matter of life and death. They will never give up efforts to eliminate any conservative effort to counter their socialist propaganda. Somewhere Dr. Gobbles is smiling.

It is amazing with this type of tripe out there that Fox News gets accused of being impartial. I guess that is because hippies who protest have no life and no job so they can get their message out better than hard working conservatives.

OMG!! Dan Abrahms is UNHINGED just like Keith Olberman!! They are CREEPY, VILE, and UNWATCHABLE!! I thought Dan Abrhams was going to try to save that network, but it’s just the main media arm of the DNC.

I caught a couple of minutes of Matthews on Hardball last night.

I was stunned at how much he’s aged in the last year or so.
