Canning the media is a great idea.

I'd prefer caning them.

My letter to US Weekly: NEW AMERICAN TERRORISM

To whom it may concern:

I can not find the words to express my utter disgust and contempt with the way in which US Weekly decided to terrorize Gov. Palin and her family.

I have never seen the vicious terrorizing and character assassination of one person disguised reporting.

And as for the credibility of the media, it is absolutely, 100%, utterly shot. Osama bin laden has more respect than the media.

American's across the country are so outraged at this terrorism against the Palin's. I can't go to the supermarket without people talking about their disdain for the homicidal digital lynch mob viciously terrorizing Gov. Palin and her family.

I have never trusted the media and always believed them to be liberally biased. But I always approached these sentiments with a little introspection and skepticism in the event that it was my ideological perception rather than the actual facts.

But after this weeks homicidal ravaging of terror on the Palin family in US Weekly, in other publications, and on television, I'm quite comfortable with my conclusion that, yes, the media are terrorists, dishonest, bias, and filled with charlatan political hacks.

I plan on boycotting every store in my city with US Weekly on their media racks. I have already contacted Walmart, and other stores and they all agree with me that US Weekly is using terrorist tactics against a family for political reasons.

Make no mistake, American's have never been this repulsed by the media, and in this case, US Weekly, in this country and they see this as not only an assault on Sarah Palin and her family. They see it as an assault on them.

I urge you to pull this terrorism on an innocent family. Otherwise I will mount an orchestrated campaign against US Weekly and call for boycotts of your publication all across my state. And don't think I don't have the influence. I own a chain of preschools and have US Weekly readers as not only my employees, but also as customers.

Again, if US Weekly thinks this is legitimate than they must agree with al qaeda's terrorist tactics as well. And for American's al qaeda is their enemy.

Thank you for your time and have a great day.

Sincerely,

[rlferny]

Looks as if they have distored her face slightly too.

She looks some what evil. Thanks U.S. Weekly.

Never will I allow that magainze in my home again.

How can they can sit there with a straight face and honestly say there not biased...do they really believe the garbage they shovel to us everyday. The MSM journalist et al are the most biased group of individuals and they have the nerve to say we'd miss em if they were gone. Me...I wouldn't miss um one bit!

[aft_lizard]

US Magazine does not deserve to own a printing press or license one, this is the most biased cover i have ever seen.

MSM, keep pushing our buttons, keep attacking children and their mother, keep it up and see what happens.

[Political Junkie Too]

Thought I would send over our Us Weekly/Sarah Palin cover story, on stands Friday, if helpful in your coverage. Might be useful as an illustration of how the news is playing out.(Us Weekly has 12 million, mostly female readers)

So, does this email that indicates coordination mean that Us Weekly is making an in-kind donation to the Obama campaign? Do they need to file paperwork with the FTC?

That's 12 million copies of this photo that they're proud of spreading on Obama's behalf, and asking the rest of the media to coordinate reporting around it.

How true ... it's all canned, calculated spin and subliminal MSM support for Obama. I was SO glad to hear that McCain abruptly his appearance on Larry King Live because of Campbell Brown's invasive questioning of Tucker Bounds, asserting that she crossed the line. She did.

***

Campbell Brown Interview Leads McCain to Cancel CNN Appearance ~~~ VIDEO HERE ALSO)

Will CNN's Campbell Brown go down as the next Dan Rather in the halls of liberal bias infamy?

That seems highly possible now after watching Brown's interview with John McCain strategist Tucker Bounds in which she repeatedly attacked Bounds over Sarah Palin's supposed lack of qualifications.

The highly charged exchange (which was very much in keeping with Brown's long record of attacking Palin) led the GOP camp to cancel an interview that John McCain was set to do last night with CNN's Larry King.

Full transcript of the Brown-Bounds exchange below the jump as well as CNN's later reference to it last night.

I wonder what her hubby, our former Coalition spokesman in Iraq, thinks ... or if he's a flaming liberal, too.

[nutmeg]

Check out the comparison of the two US magazine covers (warm and fuzzy Obama cover vs. "scandal and lies" Palin cover). Absolutely despicable.

Be sure to read STARWISE's post #1...

oops.

This will NOT go unanswered, US. Count on it.

BTTT.

[nhwingut]

Axelrod must have missed their monthly payment to Drudge. I’ve noticed he’s climbed out of the Obama tank the past few days. He’s been focusing on the blatant media bias. This bodes well.

And now the Enquirer:

WOW! Not even sure what to say, which is odd for me.

[STARWISE]

WOW === 3804 comments!!!

Fantastic .... ! Women, mothers, Americans ... are standing up to them. This is very heartening and encouraging.

Thanks for that .. ;)
