.....Speaking of Fox News, the poor, and the way GOP leaders think, Obama said, [W]ere going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means were going to have to change how the media reports on these issues.
Here is the full transcript:
I think that the effort to suggest that the poor are sponges, leeches, dont want to work, are lazy, are undeserving, got traction. And look, its still being propagated. I have to say that if you watch Fox News on a regular basis, it is a constant venue. They will find folks who make me mad. I dont know where they find them. Theyre all like, I dont want to work. I just want a free Obama Phone, or whatever. And that becomes an entire narrative that gets worked up. And very rarely do you hear an interview of a waitress, which is much more typical who is raising a couple of kids and doing everything right but still cant pay the bills.
And so, if were going to change how Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) think, were going to have to change how our body politic thinks, which means were going to have to change how the media reports on these issues, and how peoples impressions of what its like to struggle in this economy looks like. And how budgets connect to that. And thats a hard process because that requires a much broader conversation than typically we have on the nightly news.

But it isn't enough.
got fascism?
The universal truth about his ilk is that they would kneel you (conservatives) beside a ditch and end you if they could.
Until then, they’ll settle for curbing or ending any freedom you have that upsets them and their long term plan to total domination.
Zero says, “We’re going to have to change” how the media reports.
Hillary says, “We’re going to have to change” everyone’s religious convictions and cultural traditions.
Do people not understand that they’re all totalitarians, or do they not care?
Worst. Dicktator (sic). Ever.
Obama is right about 1 thing.
Not all poor people are lazy and greedy. Unfortunately Obama has it backward, most are the free Obamaphone people.
He is thinking in obsolete terms. The ‘nightly news’ is no longer a significant source of political instruction. It can produce hours of Pravda-type propaganda every night and nobody is going to watch it.
Fake but accurate reporting 24/7.
The nitwit doesn't even know the meaning of the word "venue". What is he trying to say? Same Bat-Time, same Bat-Channel?
Fox DID change how the media reports on those issues.
Obama needs to set up a Ministry of Truth to fix this.
No, it’s not.
Truth only needs one venue.
The waitress busting her ass needs to feed the new democrat welfare clients coming from Mexico, so all reporting needs to hide this.
“And very rarely do you hear an interview of a waitress, which is much more typical who is raising a couple of kids and doing everything right but still cant pay the bills.”
Apparently she isn’t doing at least something right, maybe a few things!
1st Amendment you Stalinist prick. And the 2nd protects the first
So says the food stamp Prezzy while handing out 0bama Phones.
“which means were going to have to change how the media reports on these issues”
Obama They’re going to have to say stuff i like to hear. You know like when those school kids sang songs of my accomplishments. Come on now people get with my program!
When Liberals don’t agree with something they try to destroy it.
When Conservatives don’t agree with something, they go to the pols.
And what is Barack Mussolini proposing “we” do to “change the way FOX reports news”?
I deal with LOTS of people in my job EVERY day who fit the former example of laziness, don’t want to work, expect something to be given to them, etc., ad nauseum. I guess we ALL are about to face a forced change of thinking by Obama. We simply are not allowed to express the truth, or Kim Jong-Obama will have us executed.
