Media Bias #1

Headline: “Rice told embassies to limit aid for Obama, McCain”

Story: Condoleezza Rice sent a memo to all embassies reminding them of the Federal law that prohibits them from certain political activity on the job and that they can not perform campaign work on the public payroll.

SUPPRESS ANYTHING McCAIN HAS TO SAY

NY Times Op-Ed editor Shipley (formerly a Bill Clinton White House staffer) rejects editorial by John McCain. The Drudge report actually presents McCain’s editorial. This occurs after Shipley publishes an Obama editorial on the same subject.

CNN reports that Obama says violence in Iraq has declined significantly, but "political progress, reconciliation and economic development continue to lag,” and just leaves that statement as fact. Not surprising since US Media outlets failed to cover the latest benchmarks report, but the BBC did publish the interim report.

Compare the outrage over the The New Yorker cover of Obama to the silence of the Rolling Stone’s cartoon of McCain. And all the fanfare detracted from a very interesting story in the New Yorker about Obama’s rise to power.

Things the Mainstream Media are not reporting on:

  • a. The lack of proof that Obama is a natural born US citizen.
  • b. His suggestion for a civilian National security force that is as well armed and as well financed as the Department of Defense.
  • c. Three major media anchors are not reporting on the fact that Obama has removed the US Flag from his plane and replaced it with his Oprah based trademark “O”.

The liberal left is claiming that Obama is maligned in the press, that anyone who doesn’t vote for him is a racist…it is like the pot calling the kettle black. It is a typical leftist ploy to divert attention from the real issues by making preemptive strikes on their candidate’s lack of substance and socialist rhetoric
