Pravda asks: What happened to American media?
WND ^ | March 9, 2012 | Chelsea Schilling

Posted on 03/10/2012 1:48:33 PM PST by opentalk

It’s a twist of irony: The Russian news website Pravda has published an accusation that the American media is “tame,” afraid to publish news and is “deliberately hiding the evidence published on the internet about [President Obama's] defrauding of the American public and the deliberate evisceration of the Constitution of the United States.”

In a March 7 Pravda column, “Arizona sheriff finds Obama presidential qualifications forged,” Dianna Cotter, a senior at American Military University, blasts America’s mainstream media for their virtual silence about Maricopa County, Ariz., Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s six-month investigation into the controversy surrounding Obama’s birth certificate and his constitutional eligibility for office.

“A singularly remarkable event has taken place in the United States of America,” Cotter wrote. “This event occurred in Arizona on March 1st and was an earth shattering revelation. … Yet, in the five days since [Arpaio's] revelations there has been little in the way of serious reporting on the findings he presented in his presser. With 6 short videos, the Sheriff and his team presented a devastating case, one the tame US press is apparently unable to report.”

..“Silence so loud it can be felt.”

Oh come on... you don't see the irony in this? And in this instance Pravda is 100% correct. That hurts even more.

The U.S. press is worse than tame. They are totally sold out.

When Pravda looks in the mirror and sees America's mainstream media looking back, even Pravda must report it!

The article in Pravda is written by a Freeper.

Aside from the Enquirer, it is the only legitimate MSM news source.

This article is on their most popular list. Breitbart was correct, it is time to call out the media, and as Rush articulated this week, MSM need to register as lobbyists for this administration, They provide free advertising.

We now live in the USS of A. United Socialist States of America. This is a tragedy of the most epic proportions and half of Americans are totally oblivious. If Newt isn’t elected President this November we are sunk! I am 67 years old and unlike Moochelle, for the first time in my life I am “ashamed” of America. Does anyone want to claim my 20 years of military service? I’m no longer proud of it if things continue to progress as they are progressing.

Same thang in the Bubba years:

WaPo had Noooooothing about Monica for a LONG time, while the Enquirer and “Alien Baby Found in Watermelon”-type rags featured in-depth coverage.

It was like being in The Twighlight Zone, and it’s like that now, sometimes, too.

As we draw nearer the election it will become more and more ridiculous.

Since everyone in the news media tweets, and reads twitter, we all need to tweet about the lying American news media that withholds the truth and should be sued for being an accomplice to a fraud, which should include prison!

From 89-91 I witnessed the Soviet News become better and the American news become absolute crap. Nothing has changed the trajectory of our news, though I haven’t followed Pravda or Estvestia since.
