Monica Lewinsky was not demanding millions and millions of our tax dollars.
Why do they use black people as the face of the organization when it’s run by rich white guys? They want any any challenge to be deemed racist. That is what the media fears, they don’t want to end up on Obama’s enemies list.
The article doesn’t answer the title question. It asks the question, “is the media afraid of ACORN” and then goes on to repeat what we already know: that the media has prioritized advancing a left-wing agenda over getting at the truth. That is true, but it doesn’t answer the title question and doesn’t even suggest that there’s a particular reason for asking the question.
If the media is on the same side of every issue with Obama and ACORN, and they act as a propaganda organ for Obama and ACORN, and they love doing it and it’s what they want to do, where does “fear” play a part?
The writer should either answer his own question or change the title of the article to: “The Media is a Leftist Front”
ACORN is OBAMA and the DEMOCRATS and the Media MUST PROTECT THEIR GUYS!
The media, like any corporation, is intimidated by any group that can bus thousands of unemployable pieces of sh!t to your doorstep (see Rainbow PUSH, for example). I love how somebody pointed out that the TEA parties have to be held on weekends; similar to the “Why don’t I see Obama bumper stickers on my drive to work?” thing...
You know this is no different than when Hussein said he "had visited all 57 states but may have missed one or two" during the '08 election campaign.
Our buddies like Charlie Gibson in the SRM got right on that too. < /sarc>
It’s clear the White House exerts pressure on the media to limit unwanted coverage. I understand that that is one of Rahm’s little gems that he oversees.
And it appears to work until things bubble over.
Sounds like a tactic of a certain religious Organization that is mentioned on FR frequently.
Is the fringe media in bed with Obama, Clinton and raducak communists everywhere? Yes. Nuff said.
I did a quick search on ACORN FUNDING SOURCES and the first hit was an NPR blog (of all things) that had a decent run down of the major sources or funds.
There are the various gov’t agencies (HUD, Justice, etc.) and SEIU but also the Bauman Family Foundation, Soros’ Open Society Institute (of course), the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, JPMorgan Chase Foundation, Bank of America Charitable Foundation and the list goes on and on.
ACORN and its affiliates will not be shut down until all sources of funding dry up.
