Does a bear........in the woods?
The mainstream media has been pro socialism from the 20’s.
Journalists.Working hard to replace lawyers as the most reviled group in America.
Amen, bro.
As much as I love talk radio, I get sick of hearing my favorite hosts get their panties all wadded up over something that was said by some idiot on some idiot cable news show or by some idiot in some idiot newspaper.
Mock them, yes. But to get "outraged" and demand some sort of retraction or apology, forget it.
Also, I am sick of hearing "If this had happened under a (insert name of Repulbican here)"....
Screw that.
We have to stop reliving the last war.
It would better serve us if we would say something along the lines of, "Okay. I look FORWARD to President Palin using The IRS as a weapon against Liberal groups...." Or, "Then I guess you'll be okay when Secretary of State Cruz blames the death of an American ambassador on a video and sends Ambassador Limbaugh out to lie about it on the weekend news shows...."
We can't change the past, but if we can get people to see what the future might hold, at least then we might actually have a chance to change what's coming.
Might.
The debate is over, the facts are settled.
The media isn’t just biased to the Left, it’s actively partisan to the Left.
Maybe someone could write a program to write news articles based on actual newsworthiness. For instance, protests would be covered by the amount of actual protesters, so that a million pro lifers would get front web page coverage, whereas 2 anti Koch hippies would not even get a mention.
The debate contrasting big vs small government is based upon a flawed premise that we should not accept.
The real debate should occur over positive liberty vs negative liberty. In other words this should be about what the government can do to you vs what the government cannot do to you.
Anything else is meaningless.
Recents events have once again, been badly covered by the legacy media. Rat scandals,immigration issues,and the range war have been hardly mentioned.
It is absolutely true that the MSM has decided to join hands with the Rats to attack the freedom of speech and freedom of religion in order to destroy any resistance to a single party socialist state. One ruled by an oligarchy of which they are a member.
The Republicans need to renounce the MSM at every opportunity and refuse to walk into its traps, like left-wing hosted debates. They need to remind the public continuously that the MSM IS the DNC’s mouthpiece.
Re: Fournier. All you have to do is watch him on TV. The self-righteousness of the inside the beltway liberal is readily apparent.
It would be great if the big names on our side would stop fighting each other and pool resources to create a news broadcast that can be sold as a syndicated program for any station wanting an alternative to the 6:30 WH press release broadcast.
Or start a credible cable news network.

I say this because of the supposed shift the author sees, then why was she leaving (forced out?) of CBS?
I’ll take it one step further back. What is the purpose of government? The answer to that determines all that follows.
"That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
This, I believe is the best and most succinct answer to your question.
Yep, like F=MA to engineers and physicists.
For political, societal happiness and harmony, “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men.”
It’s pretty straightforward, isn’t it? The monsters who violate this principle have no excuse - they know full well what they are doing.
A few seconds before I was due up, the line went dead. It wasn't the first time I was cut for wanting to ask simple, foundational questions.
Yes, they know d@amn well what they do.
