ABC, CBS & NBC Wait Five Days to Report Obama's 'You Didn't Build That' Attack on Business

[Mr. Wright]

As I have said all along, we have to run against 3 . . . Obama, the RAT Party, and the lame-stream media.

It took five full days and Romney making it the centerpiece of his speech on Tuesday before the first network mention

Good things happen when Republicans fight back.

Mitt basically forced the networks to mention the now-infamous "You didn't build it speech". They would have preferred to cover it up, but after Mitt made an issue of it, they had no choice.

I wish this president would learn how to be an American.

But it just isn’t in his nature.

[oldtimer]

I cannot fathom how the MSM is so allied as to bring our freedoms and culture to an end.

It is unbelievable to me as if some evil empire is behind the networks, etc.

[liberty or death]

REYNOLDS: It was the kind of statement usually emanating from the political fringe, and Sununu apologized within hours. But it was another off-message distraction, as Romney struggled to gain the upper hand, turn the spotlight on Mr. Obama, and talk about something other than how much or little he paid in taxes.

The MSM is digging deep to protect the Whiner.

[skeeter]

The only answer I have is that leftists are totalitarian, and so are controlling by nature. So they gravitate towards professions where they can control & manipulate knowlege and opinion - teachers, journalists, lawyers, politicians.

And increasingly, clergy.

I hope one day that the American people and the hyphenated American people learn to go to original sources than rely on the lame stream media for their news. There are some great people on Free Republic that follow things and do research. I first read about Barry’s anti-business statements on here, on Saturday. There wasn’t a video. It wasn’t a news story. It was the actual transcript of the speech from whitehouse.gov. I have to wonder if it was FR that caused the story to take off. Since then we have the video. It has been on every conservative talk radio show. It has been on Foxnews three nights running. And now the lame stream media has finally picked it up.

The MSM has become increasingly hysterical and corrupt as they have lost their monopoly with the advent of FOX, talk radio, email, and the internet - much like Obama’s campaign and the freaks in Hollywood will become when they see that Obama is going to lose.

“I cannot fathom how the MSM is so allied as to bring our freedoms and culture to an end.”

There has to be a way to take down the MSM.

[Sarah Barracuda]

The media hasn’t been the media for a long time..they are nothing more than the arm of the Democrat/Socialist/Progressive/Communist party..the “Media” will stop at nothing to protect Obama, who they see as the only person who can bring forth the Utopian Socialist society they have always dreamed of

[CitizenUSA]

The networks are blinded by their ideology. Assuming they try to be balanced, they see the world through a very narrow, liberal lens. In other words, it’s impossible for them to report the news objectively even if they try. I believe Bernard Goldberg wrote a book about this.

He was an insider, so he saw first hand how the news was unintentionally slanted. I’m not saying there isn’t also a great deal of intentional propaganda out there, but I’ll trust that some of the journalists try to be balanced. The problem is, they see us as backward, racist, bitter clingers. For them, it’s like trying to be balanced between reporting on Hitler versus the allies (we’re the Hitlers from their perspective btw).

I really don’t know what can be done about it all other than to continue battling them on every front. The left holds a distinctive advantage in the media, education, organized labor, and government, but WE hold the advantage of being right and true.

[Logical me]

The communists empire with King Obama at its head have tentacles into most of the MSM. Communism is here and will stay for many years even if we get the Presidency, Senate, and keep the House. It's really a shame that the MSM willfully support the communists.

Did y’all know that the current PC medical term for flaming fudge-packers is “MSM” as in “Men who have Sex with Men”?

There has to be a deeper meaning here...

[Gumdrop]

Imagine, for a moment, Obama saying something like this, “Beyonce did not get ahead in show business on her own. She is not any more talented than anyone else. Lots of people work hard on their singing and dancing. She got there with the help of lot of people.” !!! ???

Imagine what the uproar would be. Or, maybe, “Steven Spielberg, is not a harder worker than Joe Blow from hoboken. Spielberg got there because the country helped him.”

For some reason, mostly Comunist ones, disrepecting the talents and plain-old-hard ethic of working business people is respectable among the elite liberls in aceademia and the press.

We need to point out the ridiculousness of this attitude by Obama and his friends. Change the subject to artists, athletes, etc., and then hear the response!!!

I wonder how Obama has the nerve to go around taking credit for the death of Osams bin Ladn - when the Navy Seals and our military did all the hard work, the planning, and the dangerous encatment of the plan. He seems to think he is OK inn taking credit for it himself - yet business people he disses repeatedly.

There has to be a way to take down the MSM.

Their own smug righteousness is driving their audience away.

[GSWarrior]

Somewhere along the line the MSM stopped reporting the news and started reacting to news.

[apocalypto]

News media is frantically covering up for B. Obama. It spills over into general entertainment as J. Leno and D. Letterman have become cheerleaders for him.

[samtheman]

I’m sure a lot of MSM work for the MSM.

BTW, I love your tagline.

[Vaduz]

If a story won’t go away ABC, CBS, NBC come up with a white eash plan,but it’s not working.
