The liberal media has gone nuts

The millions that watched the big three for generations has been disillusioned by the spin. I see why no one trusts any of them. The lead ins are just like current online newspaper headlines, they seldom reflect the actual story. Small local stations are still plugging along with good reporting. I change the channel when the national news comes on.

The thing with local news is that they've taken the "if it bleeds it leads" maxim to heart. At least here, it has to be an 80/20 split between bad and good news.

Sadly, so many people have "drunk the Koolaid" and worship at the altar of their "news" outlet... the Fox News fanatics, MSNBC lemmings, CNN cult, etc. I prefer to hear the actual news and form my own opinions, but getting unbiased reporting, even in print, is a challenge.
 

When I'm in the mood for some news, I watch a little of the far left, then a little of the far right and know that the truth is somewhere in the middle.

If I'm curious about what's going on in the rest of the world, I go to BBC since most U. S. news outlets act as if there is no 'rest of the world' unless it involves this country.
 
No matter what our political views, we should, all of us, be extremely concerned when any reporter, much less the network anchors flat out lie to us. Two cases in point. I assume we all remember Dan Rather and Brian Williams but do you remember why they were fired from their top-of-the-top news editor positions ?

Dan Rather was fired from his job as Editor in Chief / National anchor of CBS, (2004, just prior to the National Election) when he was caught try to frame a U.S. President. Together in cahoots with a reporter from The N.Y. Times (I don't recall her name), they had documents forged about the U.S. President and then broadcast the story as fact. Such lies are a disgrace. Dan Rather, that two-faced leftist, then actually had the unmitigated gall to say, just prior to the firing, "It pains me to have to report such facts about President ****, but I have a job to do"

Pains him ? Give me a break ! Secretly, behind closed doors, he was probably overjoyed at the prospect of bringing down a Republican President.

Brian Williams was fired because he had completely made up a war story which was designed to make himself look heroic. Its been a few years now and I've forgotten the exact details, but the helicopter he was riding in was not "bullet riddled" and his life was never in any danger. Williams' "story" may not have been as egregious as the Dan Rather story but it clearly demonstrates the willingness of some reporters to lie to the American people.

At what point does it become apparent that the entire purpose of a thread is to inflame and to divide people, and now using politics to do so? Disgusting.
 
For those of you who are honestly interested in learning how crazy the leftist media has become, I recommend the following book by Michelle Malkin .untitled.pngmichelle-malkin_thumb.jpg
