Journalism's darkest hour
The San Mateo Daily Journal ^ | September 29, 2012 | Dwight L. Schwab

Posted on 10/01/2012 6:35:56 PM PDT by Navy Patriot

In case anyone just arrived from Mars, the mainstream media wants Mitt Romney to fail in his quest for the White House.

Surprised?

They will do whatever possible as “legitimate journalists” to collaborate with the Obama re-election campaign — shamefully so.

(Snip)

The mainstream media is in the tank for Obama. Every student journalism can recognize that. It’s too late for most already involved “professionally.” Most of them have already violated most of the ethical rules and sold their souls to Obama long ago.

As a journalism graduate from the University of Oregon, I am personally ashamed.

Sometimes, but rarely, the MSM bias and agenda is actually exposed in print by a rare, truthful, journalist.

The media patrol will be stopping by Mr. Schwab’s home or office shortly in order to help him to get his mind right.

Limbaugh pegged it.

Up to 5 years ago, they were just biased.
In the Era of Baraq they became part of the (journ0list) campaign.

Methinks you are right, but will the public school/university indoctrinated ignorant, useful idiots figure it out in time?

If Hussein gets his four more years, there will be a lot of ex media people trying to sell insurance, or working the telemarketing phones. Or clerking at the Everything's A Dollar Store.

HAHA

You are quite right about the public school/univ... useful idiots.... etc....

That said, my sense is that....
A lot of patriotic Americans across several demographics are just coming out of the fog, haze & stupor...
...beginning to pay attention and THINK about the future of our country.!!

My humble only...

Not trying to get to the who,what,why,when,where of the CIA agents and why was the Ambassador 1000 miles from his Embassy with NO security!What, they afraid it will lead to W.H., to Hillary, and Rice. Thay sit on everything detrimental to Hussein Obama.

Well, it’s not like this is the first time the media has violated their so-called code of journalistic honor. They’ve been in the tank for Dems since I was a kid fifty years ago and more. Once again, it’s not the lies the media tells, it’s the truth they hide.

This of course would mean that you are not really a "journalist" in the modern sense, as they clearly have absolutely no shame whatsoever.

I simply do not patronize them. I laugh at them, and mock them openly when I encounter them in public.

What I am at a loss to explain, is how the drive-by media benefits from the advance of the socialist cause.

Comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable? This was originally humor, not a mission statement.

Yet this is exactly what the media views as their jobs. They simply show their bias by what is news. The standard tactic of if a Republican is accused of malfeasance, party ID is in the first few words, yet when it is a democRAT accused of the same malfeasance the party ID is in the last paragraph if mentioned at all.

So what’s in it for the drive-by’s. The ones in DC might get a cushy gov’t gig, but the ones in East Podunk? What do they get out of it ? Or is it a conditioned Pavlovian response to the stimulus of the downtrodden versus the well off.
