“It’s like watching Pravda”
Thanks for the tip on this N2L.
Newt Gingrich bitch slapping the elite leftwing media, saying what I’ve been saying — journalism as we once knew it is dead.
[their] attacks on Gov Palin, again and again, have been factually wrong, intellectually dishonest, totally biased…deliberate, vicious, dishonest total distortion of who Gov. Palin is.
The elite media on the left is do desperate to elect Barack Obama, that the view they are giving you of Gov Palin is fundamentally a falsehood.
Here’s a link to the video in case it doesn’t appear below.
No pretense, not a shred of neutrality, on the part of the Leftwing Media.




Robbie, perhaps your readers would like to know how we have arrived at the point where the media is no longer America’s watch dog but a mouthpiece for socialism.
I worked for the Wall Street Journal for years, and while I was in the advertising department, got to know the stringers (reporters) and assigned reporters in two offices, St. Louis and Houston.
The financial reporters were all conservatives. But the reporters hired for op-ed and other non-financial articles were all liberal, even at the WSJ. These reporters came from other publications who had hired them because of the tony journalism schools (like Missouri University) they had attended. This was in the 70’s.
These were the same people who had loaded up on buses and traveled to the DNC Convention of ‘68 and had participated in the “Days of Rage” protesting the war in Vietnam and against “the man”. They were being duped, their protests being funded by groups like the Communist Party of America, but they were too young to realize they were being duped. The protests themselves were interesting; Che’ t-shirts, other students standing at tables selling books by Marx, Lenin and Gramsci (Hitler was still pretty well off limits). Communism cloaked as social justice (socialism).
When the war ended, and their protesting days were basically over, these students, now graduated went on to become members of the press. And some of them, like William Ayers, when on to teach the next crop of journalists. They didn’t change their opinions, or was their hatred of this nation reduced, they just became clandestine, operating within the halls of academia or working for the print press where they could push what I call “creeping socialism”. But they continued to crank out more journalism students who bought into their rhetoric because an impressionable student never thinks that his/her professor would tell them something that was not true. University students trust professors to teach them truth, even though it is really propaganda disguised as academics. Their professors held as example of great journalism people like Walter Cronkite who singlehandedly lost the war in Vietnam. This was the goal, to be like Walter Cronkite and others of his ilk.
So now, after years of indoctrination, the media finally has what it has been striving for for forty years; it’s first truely socialist candidate. All that is lacking is the picture of Obama in his Che’ t-shirt.
So the media, in it’s desire to elect a socialist president, has ignored his past relationships with anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-Jewish and anti-white radicals. Americans still have a fear of socialism, so the media ignored what was obvious and refused to report on it.
You see, those who cut their teeth trying to create a socialistic utopia out of the United States cannot admit that their “great society” doesn’t exist and never will. They tell themselves that the only reason socialism has never worked is because the wrong people were in charge of all those socialistic goverments but if the right guy came along, wholla, it would work.
The press has always represented, in the minds of Americans, the guard dog that protects our home. Americans expected fair reporting, exposing the corruption and policies of those who acted against the interest of the nation. This year, the watch dog deserted his post and started running with the pack, become just as vicious as the most vicious in the pack. One only has to look at the reporting on Sarah Palin to understand that. Our media is no longer non-partisan. Instead, it sees it’s goals of forty years coming to fruition.
But the students of forty years ago never envisioned the internet. They thought they would be safely ensconced in their offices able to push their “creeping” socialism on an unsuspecting nation. Now they are a dying industry, with all major print publications having massive layoffs. People no longer wait for that kid on the bike to deliever their daily dose of news. Americans now log on, peruse many publications and get a lot of news from diligent bloggers such as yourself. They are struggling, trying to stay alive, and have found a candidate that will push for the Fairness Doctrine to be revived and think that their positions will once again be secure. They are wrong.
Senator Obama has one talent; oratory. He is an programmed empty suit who simply verbalizes what his handlers have told him. David Axelrod, Obama’s campaign guru, admitted that when running for the U.S. Senate, he would have Obama practice his speaking techniques in front of a mirror for two hours a day. Obama adopted the speaking techniques of a combination of black ministers, including Martin Luther King, Jr.
But the sign “The Buck Stops Here” will be on an Obama Oval Office desk. He, and not his handlers, will be responsible for what are considered his decisions. He will be a failure, because socialism always fails, not matter who is in charge of it. If he implements his tax plan, we will see the greatest exodus of jobs in this nation since the Great Depression. To prevent that, he will have to do a “Bill Clinton” and go back on all his campaign promises. Either way, he loses. And backed Democratic control houses, we will see government control on steroids. I predict that within two years, Americans will be suffering terminal buyer’s remorse. But it will be too late.
One other thing; Joe Biden is prone to sticking his foot in his mouth, but he is not stupid. And he and Obama were recently briefed on national security issues. Americans have pretty much put 9-11 behind them, thanks to the actions of the Bush administration, and no more attacks on our home soil. Will they accept another attack on American soil under an Obama administration? I don’t think so.
I am sorry this is so long. But I hope it gives your readers a little insight to how we got where we are today.
My god, who’ll be next, Tricia Nixon?
Hahaha! You can have that bimbo!
Another one of Annie’s multiple outs. Who are the real conservatives Annie? They’re dropping like flies so think real hard before replying. Don’t blink or that goalpost is gonna move again!
Creative thesis ‘05, only the post 9/11 enviroment and run-up to the Iraq war destroys every single point you try to make here. The traditional media’s incessant flag-waving and refusal to question even the most jaw-dropping administration claims which we now know to be rank propaganda. Your worst new enemy Chris Matthews once said he got a tingly feeling up his leg seeing W in his codpiece on the aircraft carrier. Brian Williams buys his suits from the same tailor Limbaugh does and they often correspond with each other. CNN’s John King has been practically attached to McCain’s hip for the last 8 years. MSNBC has a tiny audience compared to Rush and Fox, so there’s no groundwell coming from that quarter. The GOP will lose their power in 12 days because of their own despicable actions, not the media’s. What a bunch of crybabies the big tough guys turned out to be.
Only you and your fellow moonbats think Tricia Nixon is a “real conservative”, patty. That’s pathetic. As far as goalpost moving, the topic is the left wing media. Try to focus.
Pattycakes, the only person that gives Chris Matthews a “tingle up his leg” is Obama. Not George Bush.
Where you there during the “Days of Rage”? Did you live through the terror, the bombings, the protest marches that were funded by the CPA? Did you work in the media then or even in the decade following?
No, you didn’t. But I did. And you can spew your stupitidy all over this website, but sorry, toots, it doesn’t make you right, or show you knowledge of those days.
Lose power in the next 12 days? Do you enjoy exhibiting your ignorance for all the world to see? The Democrats have had power for almost three years and look where we are now.
Be careful what you wish for. You just may get it. And I promise you, you won’t like it.
I was 6 years old but I did live 12 miles from Newark in Carteret so I guess I was kinda there. It did scare my parents tho, who were native New Yorkers and fled to Texas along with thousands of other white suburban families. But the real point is – who cares anyway? You sound longer in the tooth than Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayers at a red-diaper coffee clatch. Hint: no one who rememebrs is fond of reliving the 60s riots, and by referencing them you’re only gonna draw puzzled looks from the two succesive generations who are now of voting age.
I’m already liking it. Watching the death-rattle of movement conservatism is dee-licious to behold. It’s abandoned it’s roots and exists now only as a parasitic growth on the body politic, which is preparing to excise it once and for all.
Damn that memory hole: (granted – no tingling, but plenty of sucking and drooling going on here)
Nice post, retire 05.
It’s unfortunate that the Marxist were so successful in infiltrating our educational system, and perverting impressionable young minds with their nonsense. Of course, many get their bearings, if they became gainfully employed, started a family, and/or a business, but sadly, as is evidenced here every day with a petulant troll, not all are capable to rise above the Marxist indoctrination.
Robbie, thanks for h/t. Here’s another new vid, just out today.

What a circle jerk this echo chamber is. Adios, wingnuts!
Really?
No h00-h00?
Now don’t be teasing us, little leftard. We know how nutroots and liberals like to go back on their word, just like their Dear Leader.
no one who remembers is fond of reliving the 60s riots
Does recreate68 ring a bell?
For what it’s worth, a strange and unusual post over at Pat Dollard’s, someone I respect and trust. It’s not his story, but one posted there, all the same.
More on B-HO’s birth certificate.
Robbie, that’s a good’un.
All one need do is click on your link, or go to zombietime, and click on the bizarro world of dirty, filthy hippies, engaged in their deluded festivals and protests.
The all time favorite has to be inflated scrotum guy.
This was in Berzerkely, in 2005. Notice the guy has covered his body in the famous symbol from the dirty, filthy hippie days from the 60’s, the International Symbol of the Chicken.
Tres 60’s chic, non?
I see Bobby Wayne Little Girl Raper And Murderer, got a stay.
For what it’s worth…
It’s worth less than zero. Andy Martin, aka Anthony Martin Trigona, is mentally ill. He was unfit to be drafted in the 60s, he was unfit to be admitted to the Illinois State Bar in the 70s and he has continued to be unfit for admission. He was diagnosed with a “moderately-severe character defect manifested by well documented ideation with a paranoid flavor and grandiose character.” He’s been subsequently diagnosed as delusional. He has been arrested for stalking a news woman. He has been declared a “vextatious litigant” by the federal courts where he has filed hundreds of frivolous law suits. He is a raging anti-semite.
Anonymous, didn’t know any of that, never heard of the guy.
Like I said, it was a strange report. Had it not been posted at Dollard’s, I wouldn’t have even mentioned it.
Yeah, we go back almost 40 years. He just keeps popping up. Intelligence + money + mental illness = ruined life.
No2Liberals: I commented over there and linked to the orignal case denying him admission to the bar and documenting his psych history. I also encouraged them to do an internet search on the guy. My post went into moderation and was never posted. So, they had a heads up and when it blows up in their face, it’s their problem.
That’s a perfect diagnosis and description of Pat!
Yep, that’s Pat alright!
Henh.
I’m sure he will be lurking, BBB, even though he said he was leaving.
retire05…nice post! I totally agree! Even an Obama presidency will not save the MSM on the national level. The damage done to a large section of the public by their bias and their “look-the-other-way” attitude is too extensive. Once people are gone, they won’t be coming back.
The “Fairness Doctrine” if revived will prove to be a disaster for AM radio. Once highly-rated conservative talk shows disappear, so will the advertisers. Liberal-talk radio couldn’t even stay on the air by paying stations to carry their programming, so that is not a viable option. And garden and automotive shows are not going to fill that airtime left void by disappearance of conservative talk shows. The AM frequencies will soon go to the only market left open to them: Spanish-speaking listeners.

So pattycakes was six year old during the “Days of Rage” Oh, my, am I impressed by pattycake’s youthful inexperience. And what did her/his brave yankee parents do? Fled to Texas. Now, I ask, just how damn lucky can this state get?
Yeah, pattycakes, according to you I am old. But not too damn old to remember how to load a Colt Phython. Not to damn old to know that liberals like you are what is destroying a once great nation, not to mention what you have done to my state. I am sure you drive around in your used Volvo with the “Keep Austin Weird” bumper stickers holding the damn thing together.
You see, I listened to those like William Ayers and his buddy, Rudd. When I encounter someone so obviously as stupid and liberal as you, I become violent. Oh, I wont’ hurt you. But I will put you in the corner sucking your thumb like the child you are.
But just to show you where my heart is, if you are so damned determined to live under socialism, I am sure there are those who would help me buy you a one-way ticket to Hugo Chavez land or some other place that practices some kind of “ism” that would be more to your liking.
My guess is you are just another loney troll, who can’t find your way to a good job. Perhaps you should have dropped in on that local school instead of dropping out. Have you been over to DailyKos lately? They have a big sign “Lunatic Leftwing Liberals Welcome”.
I want to protect our freedom of speech. I don’t want talk radio or television programs by conservative hosts. Isn’t there any place we can sign a petition so Barak Obama won’t take our rights away. By the people, for the people.
I mean’t to say above that I don’t want conservative show host to be
discontinued . I definetly want apetition to sign against Barek Obama so he won’t take our rights away.
