tomato can Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 This chick nails it. http://thefederalist...ae1047-55858421 In summary: A low level GOP staffer criticized Obama's daughters on her Facebook page for dressing and acting inappropriately at an event and it became the weekly outrage. She nailed it....As she said near the end of the article "There is a huge liberal bias problem in the media (fun recent graph related to the problem here). Pretending it’s not there is not going to make it go away. But pointing out the problems year after year isn’t making things better" Nothing ever seems to change with these reporters....What can we do?

3rdnlng Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Well - the USA was founded on liberalism...liberty... Yes, today's liberalism just reeks of the founding father's interpretation of liberty. Do you take dumbass classes in your spare time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you're a student of history riddle me this, do modern day US liberals have more in common with the Founding Fathers or the 19th century European intelligentsia?

Tiberius Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 And why do you think that is? Because Conservatives only want to be told what feels good to them. I mean Rush Limbo and Hannity, seriously Since you're a student of history riddle me this, do modern day US liberals have more in common with the Founding Fathers or the 19th century European intelligentsia?

That's so odd. I wonder why that is? I wonder why, as is being reported today, that Brett Baier's Special Report is actually beating out BROADCAST news programs in key markets. Hmmmm. It's all so perplexing. Edited December 4, 2014 by LABillzFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob's House Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 (edited) Puh lease...War on Christmas, Benghazi, It's cold out...the most popular radio and news programs are Fox, Drudge and Rush..... Did it ever occur to you that those outlets have such high ratings because each is one of a very few outlets catering to an underserved market its respective medium? Perhaps you can explain why a relatively innocuous FB post made by a peon set off a media firestorm?

3rdnlng Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 From the OP's link: The reason Gruber has been so outrageously under-covered by the mainstream media is obvious: The whole story is an indictment of the entire ecosystem of establishment liberalism, from the supposedly “explanatory journalists” who picked sides from the beginning, to the academic elites who serve as willing mercenaries for the Democratic party (while pretending to be unimpeachably objective followers of the facts) to the press corps that carries water for the whole enterprise. Grüberdammerung runs against the narrative that only lovers of limited government are driven by self-interest and greed. It gives the average person a glimpse into how the sausage is made and embarrasses the sausage makers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rich corporations are out to get the people and make them liberal! It's really no different than Soviet Russia It doesn't take a conspiracy, but you already know that. Claiming there isn't an overwhelming liberal bias across the mainstream media is about the equivalent of claiming the world is flat. Now we know (like we didn't already) that you will defend the liberal position regardless of the facts and thus your opinion is meaningless.
