Special “Liberal Media Bias Alert” E-dition

Monday, August 13, 2012

Well, Maybe There’s Just a Little…

  • Every day you’ll see examples of Liberal Media Bias (from Obamacare, to abortion, to TV commentators) and results of reporting how many Americans say US news organizations are politically biased, inaccurate, and don’t care about the people they report on. But you didn’t need Whistleblower Pollster Ron Rasmussen to tell you about that. The Blower’s been telling you about Liberal Media Bias for more years than we can remember.
  • Maybe that’s why our Quote for Today Committee chose Ted Koppel’s: “People shouldn’t expect the mass media to do investigative stories. That job belongs to the ‘fringe’ media.”
  • No wonder newspapers continue to lose circulation, and TV newscasts are not the place to go if you really want to find out what’s happening in politics. Whatever happened at the Houston station that was considering “Anchorless News?” Instead of being the next wave of TV news, it was probably just a publicity stunt to draw attention by a station with low ratings.
  • The percentage of Americans who regularly turn to cable news channels is up. There’s a tremendous increase in online news consumption. An increasing number of Americans (especially young people) form their political opinions after laughing at late night jokes by Jay Leno, David Letterman, Jon Stewart, and Stephen Colbert.
  • Remember Robin Williams’ HBO Movie (“Man of the Year”) about a comedian, who hosted a news satire program deciding to run for president, and after an explosive performance in the final debate (in which he made many of the same points we’ve been talking about for years), gets just enough votes to win?
  • For years we’ve been telling you folks at your Morning Fishwrap were too lazy, too stupid, or too dishonest to report the truth. And it really doesn’t matter which they are, because the result is always the same— voters have become a flock of dumbed-down, self-absorbed, media-influenced, politically-correct, celebrity-obsessed, uninformed government-dependent sheep.
  • Ironically, isn’t it about time The Fishwrap runs another idiotorial wondering aloud why their readers were so poorly informed?
  • And with only “84” more days until the 2012 Elections, Liberal Media Bias just keeps on keepin’ on.
  • The Obama Campaign has already released eleven attack ads on the new Romney-Ryan ticket and on Sunday, Newsbusters (which joined The Blower in exposing Liberal Media Bias in 2005) reported some fairly biased items slamming Romney’s newly minted running mate. CNN’s Candy Crowley claimed some GOPers think the Ryan Pick was “Some Sort of Ticket Death Wish.” CNN’s Gloria Borger described Paul Ryan as “A Polarizing Figure.” Politico’s Jonathan Martin went snide on Paul Ryan with “Mr. Wienermobile is Slinging Cheap Margaritas.” Meanwhile, Harry the Cable Guy says over at PMSNBC, Chris Matthews slammed Paul Ryan’s Budget as “Screwing Needy People.”
  • Remember when Matthews claimed, “I’m not a ‘DemocRAT Activist,’ I’m a political commentator?” What a colossal load of crap that was.
  • Maybe our Obama Supporters in the Press will be more fair-and-balanced this week with their 24/7 lambasting of the Romney- Ryan Campaign’s weekend bus trip through swing states, which was scheduled to include a Homecoming Rally” in Waukesha, Wisconsin Sunday evening.
  • Hurley the Historian says on this date in 1961, East Germany began erecting that Berlin Wall to keep people from fleeing to the West. Is Obama still blaming George Bush?
  • As the Official Voice of the Conservative Agenda, for decades The Blower has been ahead of the curve reporting Liberal Media Bias. Shouldn’t folks now be asking what else we’ve been right about all along too?

REMEMBER: If you can’t improve on the news, you shouldn’t even be reporting it
