“I remember reading All the President’s Men and thinking: That’s journalism. You do what it takes to get the truth and you lay it before the public, because the public has a right to know.”
They had “the truth” laid in their laps by a government snitch, and they STILL couldn’t discover what the break-in was all about. If that’s the pinacle of journalism, what good is journalism?

These people went into journalism with an agenda.
They want to “change” the world and get paid for it.

All journalists are required to take a Hypocritic oath.
It is a secret oath but one can guess how it goes...

Good Editorial.
But I fear that it’s too late for the msm. They have already sold their souls to the devil.

If there were any justice left, this election cycle would spell the death of the MSM. Rather than looking at a satirical column like
this as racist, all concerned about the death of our First Amendment rights should be protesting the failure of the MSM do its job. I still haven't seen a major mainstream investigation of the projects Barack Obama funded when he worked on the Woods Fund and the Annenberg Challenge and what they indicate about his educational philosophy.

I’m a big fan of Orson Scott Card and have read most of his books. I had no idea he was a Democrat because he seemed so adult.

good article
the media have been truly disgusting in the way they have been promoting obama and covering up obama’s connections, dealings and actions.
There is so much to look at from ODINGA, to TX money going to Kenya, to ACORN, to his I will never use nuclear weapons
the list is endless and yet yo the media have not done your job, you have not been anything but a mouth piece for obama and is it any wonder if you are walking down a street and someone lets you have it in public.
It will happen so don’t be surprised when it does, I know if I ever get to see you so called journo’s then I will let my feelings be known to you

An uninformed nation is one that will be taken over by its enemies - uninformed people make bad choices because they have been bamboozled by those who should be informing them as well as by those who were elected to protect them.
America has been misinformed BIG TIME!
