The media wanted Obama to become President because they saw him as their progressive dream come true. Obama is the most left wing, Marxist, commie loving, progressive we have ever seen and that is exactly what the media wanted. Every single thing Obama has done to take this country down the media applauds him for that, because they believe in what he believes him and they will defend him til their last breath

Hopefully more members of the foreign press will assist those of us in the States that have been sending out warning signals since February 2007.

The foreign press is our only hope because the national press sure won't do it.

Good work, but he totally overlooked the media’s complete swallowing of obama’s “autobiography” and never looked into ANY details of his life. They would say, “No need to. It’s all in the book! And if it isn’t, then it must not be worth examining.”

they’re going to have a lot to answer for in the coming years


As much as I hope this is the case I have to ask: How - exactly - will the press be held to account?

Last time I looked, there is no law that states the press must report fairly or truthfully and without bias toward one party or against another. It seems to me that it was always just assumed the press would act in that manner.

Canada’s coming up with some first class commentators: Mark Steyn, Noel Sheppard, and others. Must be that nice clear cool air they’re breathing...

The media’s wet dream has turned iito their sweaty nightmare.
Tingles up their legs have turned into cobras biting them in their collectige asses.
Their willing suspension of disbelief has become their headlight of truth shining in their doe eyes.
They didn’t just ‘neglect’ their duties as guardians of truth, they literally fled their posts as AWOL coward deserters.
Their most shameful act of arrogance is that they have no shame, just like a prostitute hooked on crack.......

"...never looked into ANY details of his life"

Worse, a lot of them know the truth of Bami's past and hide it because he is their Chosen One.

The only thing that can be done is boycott their publications and the products advertised on the major media outlets.

Here's an interesting question!
What if a 1M conservative cable subscribers asked to have CCN blocked from their basic package. What about 100K?
What's the threshold where CNN’s wallet would be hit hard?

Note CNN is increasing an international news outlet as opposed to a national news outlet so it might not matter if their US audience shrunk to nothing.

The ‘law’ that will hold them ‘accountable’ is the ages old Law of Supply and Demand, administered in the Court of Public Opinion.
People will not buy a product that is known to be defective.......

Most people dragged through the mud by the media don’t sue because the bar is set high - for good reason. But those genuinely wronged need to sue and sue big. An enterprising law firm could make a good living off providing such a service after the first couple court victories.

It’s not like the evidence is hard to come by. Just the will to do it.

I’m originally from canadastan and grew up on Rex Murphisms. He’s a libertarian. Unfortunately, he’s affiliated with the CBC...one of the most anti-American broadcast companies in the world. You should watch their news shows. They make Al jazeera look like Fox news.

Maybe with their help, the media malpractice will be totally acknowledged by the guilty parties, and America will never have to witness such a disgraceful episode again.

NEVER going to happen. The presstitutes in this country will NEVER, EVER admit to doing anything wrong. They are liberals and socialists to the core, and to be a liberal means never having to accept responsibility for your actions

They will, hopefully, continue their long, slow descent into irrelevance and unemployment. It cannot come soon enough.

One might say, "biting them in their entire selves."

I’m not worried about what anyone in the writes, it’s what they didn’t write that is the problem.
They completely abrogated their proper and just responsibilities of vetting an unknown candidate for the most powerful post in the world, and in so doing, aided and abetted the foistering upon the American people a man so incompetent that he cannot even face them without the aid of an electronic device to tell him what to say.....

From what I read they already made a Bristol Palin and Tea Party joke at these pathetic Emmy Awards. Im not even watching, don’t care for it, don’t care who wins..just a bunch of lefties in a room patting each other on the back while trashing most of America
