    Years ago I worked as a free-lance photographer for the Associated Press. I was proud of the work they did and they were respected for reporting the news. Our media has now become a mouthpiece for the White House and BHO. We don’t get news, we get scripted opinions. We get what the president and his gang of Chicago politicians want us to hear. This group is so corrupt and our media is willing to jump into the back pocket. What we do get is geared to keep the majority of people in the dark about what is really happening.

    Yesterday, BHO spent some time in a small book store to promote small businesses. That was reported by all the media. Not one word of all the regulations our president has signed into law, which will have an adverse effect on small business, the economy and eventually all of us. We have too many people that want free things and free health care that they are willing to vote their freedom and liberty away. Obamacare is not free and everyone will see that come January 1st.

    Our media has successfully aided in the largest cover-up in this country’s history. What happened in Libya may never be known. What is known is our commander in chief, and his administration, watched as Americans were murdered and did nothing. The media helped by keeping all of this from us prior to the election. They continue to protect the president. If the president were a republican, all h@@@ would have broken.

    Eventually all the truth will come out and it will again be up to the people to vote. Hopefully at some point, people will wake up and vote for the man, regardless of party affiliation. This country thrives on free enterprise and the ability for each to succeed. Maybe, we will at some point, have news services that will return to reporting NEWS.

    Agreed. Sad but true. People fail to look past the "Overton Window" (which is a great book, by the way) and see only what they are shown.

    They see him smile and do these bulls*** publicity stunts, and ooh and ahh. He's so amazing! He understands us! They're awestruck with his greatness.

    The problem arises when, as you said, pushes legislation to hurt small businesses, and says that no one built their own business, then visits one and everyone forgets about everything he's done to try to put them out of business.

    He hates America and everything we stand for. He hates the military. He hates Americans. But... If you try to tell someone that, guess what?


    You're a racist. Yep. Every time. Glockpaperscissors can attest to that. Lost over a hundred friends on facebook because they voted for or support Dear Leader, and she was called a racist for unfriending people. They looked at it though their obama goggles. She didn't unfriend them because they voted for a man who wants to destroy this counrty, oh, no, no, no. She unfriended them because they voted for a black man. Yep. Makes sense.

    CPT Nervous, you are right. One can be called a racist by mentioning Chicago. It is amazing what you can do or say that has nothing to do with race, yet you will be labeled.

    04DarkShadowGT. I know but it is certainly more obvious today when the truth and news matters. If the real truth is not getting out, what is next. Thanks for your reply.

    If a republican is elected in 2016, you will see the media transform from a lapdog, into a vicious attack dog overnight.They couldn't wait to bad mouth Bush, even if the story wasn't true. But, have they once reported anything negative of the Messiah? Nope.

    Certain corporate news networks shill for the Democrat Establishment.

    When the WH changes hands they trade roles of WH critic and WH defender. All corporate networks promote the status quo, central banking, interventionist wars overseas, and the domestic federal security apparatus.

    So you're complaining the MSM reported a story and didn't include any extra editorializing?

    So you're admitting to being a voluntary pawn of the "left slanted" media? When did you see the light? :dunno:

    almost ALL of them are liberal. there is ONE that is conservative, Fox, and sometimes they're so damn crazy that people are turned off.

    "WOW" :rolleyes: You clearly did not understand what he meant, what Paladin said was that years ago the press covered more fact than fiction....

    I understand perfectly.
    If he worked in the 1940s, you'd be right. The 50's were iffy, and by the 1960s the media certainly had created it's left leaning bias (ya know, that Vietnam era stuff). I'm going out on a limb and say that Paladin probably isn't old enough to cover the FDR administration.
