No, Walter-we mean liberal-as in:
useless, irrational, hysterical, incapable-of-logical-thought-process.
If you want the best examples of where media bias does extreme damage, just look at the Iraq war, and Al Jeezera. Media coverage influences world wide perception. Remember those exiled Iraqi's boarding busses in Jordan to go to back Iraq and fight for Saddam? They were stirred into a frenzy by Al Jeezera's slanted coverage of the war- they ended up being toast.
The morale of our troops is directly effected by media bias too. All this "quagmire" coverage and continous negativity in all reports from Iraq. It makes the military's job harder to do. It's tough on their families as well. (The welcome exception is Fox News-They try to include positive stories and they have done some good work in telling people about how difficult it was to rebuild Europe after WW II.)
Imagine if all jouranlists and networks applied Fair and Balanced to how they did their news. There'd be less problems in the world,-I think.
That was an excellent well-written piece by Mr. Elder. I've researched this issue for the last several years and have written numerous letters to the editor on this subject. In fact Brent Bozell just wrote another well-written peice about how journaists continue to hide behind bogus claim of objectivity while serving as lapdogs for the Demorats and attack dogs against Republicians.
This issue does indeed matter because what is at stake here is our rights as conservatives and chrstians to address issues of public importance in public arenas like this one without the fear of retribution or retalation. There are those who look at us as a public health risk to our own communities simply because of what we stand for and the ideas we promote. These people are seeking to criminialize our expression and have us sent to concentrtation and reeducation camps.
How it hurts is because a lot of these people are posing as journalists and hiding behind bogus and false claims of objectivity. These people clearly have malicious and harmful intentions towards us christians and conservatives. These people are not our friends, they are our enemies and if you're going to take up for these sorry bastards, then you're not going to be treated very nicely in conservative or christian circles.
Liberal and progressives points of view DO NOT REPRESENT NEUTRALITY and any news ornganiztion that inisists on presenting the news this way is very highly suspect. If you're going to blow kisses to these news organizations, you go do so on DU, NOT here at FR. As somone once said, the friends of our enemies are our enemies and these news organizations, CNN and the big three are our enemies.
Regards.
