I was shocked that the local NBC station LEAD the evening news with the 9/12 rally in D.C. They didn’t show an aerial shot, which would be REALLY shocking for NBC, but they covered it with far more balance than I could ever have hope to. NBC!
They said it was organized by conservative groups, but said it was not anti-Obama but anti-big government and anti-spending. They pretty much got it right. Frankly, I was very surprised.
By contrast, the others were silent generally supporing Obama’s Minnesota informercial for socialist medicine. CNN begged off by doing Afghanistan. And of course, Fox had it all.
FWIW, my local Fox channel has been covering the ACORN child brothel story as well. They have been covering it in detail. So not just Fox News on cable but my local Fox affiliate as well.
Both were Sacramento stations - NBC and Fox local.
By the way, NBC local didn’t give a number for the crowd but called it a “massive” rally, or words to the effect. I was shocked they didn’t try to ignore it or cover it up like the rest of the MSM. I was also shocked they lead with this and put Obama’s Minnesota health care infomercial after it.
