Gee, do you think the future new members of the FCC will demand fairness and objectivity from the press?
(not holding my breath)
“But Obama deserved tougher scrutiny than he got”
SUE THEM for Journalistic Malpractice.
Their malpractice will cost each and every American person hundreds of thousands of dollars. It will cost American industry trillions of dollars.
Sue them!!!
I would like to see a reprint of those '32' negative pieces on Obama. I bet they were devastating.
I completely agree with you, but let's face it ... nobody's suing anyone. They did it, it's over and we are now stuck with the Messiah for the next 4 years, minimum.
confession time.
cleansing for the soul, ya know?
ok, that’s enough cleansing! let’s get back to the BO *party*.
Yeah, the McCain/Palin negative articles were total hatchet job, character assasinations, lies and "innuendo".
Obama's "negative" articles were, more than likely, softball articles that chatised him for not picking out the "first dog".
Newspapers, TV news and especially the AP are not in any way obligated to be fair, objective or even truthful. That is a myth created by the media themselves. Politicians, movie stars and various other self-promoters worship at the feet of these trained propagandists, often at the cost of their own integrity. Media ombudsmen are very similar to Wal-Mart greeters except that Wal-Mart greeters may actually help you in some way.
“Calm down, take a deep breath. Relax. =)”
Sorry - my IRA has almost become almost worthless. My wife’s has lost about half its value. We are in deep, deep trouble.
It’s the media’s fault. They committed malpractice. They fraudulently misinformed the American people.
Sue them! I want my money back. I want my savings back.
Their coverage of Obama didn't ruin your IRA. The fault for that can be laid at a lot of feet, including the Dems in Congress and the too-smart-by-half fellows in the financial sector. Barack "Present" Obama had no influence on that.
Now ... what happens next may well be his fault; and the MSM deserve all available calumny for their dewy-eyed refusal to look hard at Mr. Obama's (lack of) record. But fair's fair.
May I steal, please?
Which just goes to prove that any idiot with a camera or a keyboard can be a journalist.......
Ditto....ditto....ditto....ditto....
Heppa youse’f.
Sorry to hear that and now I understand your frustration. You have every right to be pi$$ed off, in fact, you're more calmer than I would be under the circumstances. It makes me sick to hear stories like this about people worked hard and put their money into retirement funds just to see them get wiped out, while the people who caused the problem are flying around the country to have weekend parties at expensive luxury resorts and getting millions in bonus money.
I apologize for being so flippant in my last post and hope things work out for you.
...”It’s going to be a long four years.”...
That is an understatement.
Where’s the fairness doctrine for this crap?
The zero IS one of those dims in congress.
