Article: "Media Still Supports Obama"

" Apart from Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, both owned by News Corp., the media "remains very supportive of him [Obama], perhaps not of all of his policies," Murdoch told Stuart Varney of Fox Business Network. "

Remember that the media is supposed to be impartial and unbiased? So why is it that only Mr Murdoch's assets (Fox News & WSJ) are pointing out the problems? Yes, libs, those two also did point out the problems during the Bush years. And yes, they both took Bush to task. The difference is that they didn't enjoy it.

At this point, I'm strongly reminded of something Mika Brzezinski (of MSNBC's Morning Joe) said: " More recently, she criticized the way some journalists are infatuated with President Obama and his wife Michelle, stating "I still don’t think it’s right to be in love with him ... and to be acting like a little girl at a Beatles concert.” " Honestly.

The only thing that surprises me is that it was Ms Brzezinski that said it. It's a given that I don't agree with most of what she says, but I believe her to be 110 per cent on the mark with this one. The majority of the American media is in love with the Obamessiah. I wonder how he felt when he went to Russia and there were no drooling sycophants in their press corps. Of course, he had the love and adulation of the American press lap-dogs who went with him.

But there's something else that I'd like to point out ... something else Ms Brzezinski said: " At the same time, she criticized members of the media elite with trying deliberately to "bring down" Sarah Palin: "Members of the network media elite, as well as members and people who worked for the New York Times when Sarah Palin first came on the scene, and this is what they knew about her: She was a woman, she was pro-life, and she had some very, very conservative views on other issues" ...And all I could hear from my friends in the network media elite was, ‘Let’s bring her down. I hope these rumors bring her down'. . . . They did not know her. They didn’t know anything about her. But they wanted to bring her down.” She has continued her support for Palin even after her resignation saying Palin represented the views of "real Americans."

Telling, isn't it? According to this, the network media elite were trying to bring down Sarah Palin. They certainly did that, didn't they? Shame on them.

At this point, I'm just waiting for somebody to scream "RAAACIST!!!" at Ms Brzezinski in 3...2...1...
