You Have to Love Our Media


And the beat goes on and the nay-sayers persist in their intractable denial.

Headlines On This Date 4 Years Ago:


"Republicans spending $42 million on inauguration while troops Die in unarmored Humvees"


"Bush extravagance exceeds any reason during tough economic times"


"Fat cats get their $42 million inauguration party, Ordinary Americans get the shaft"



Headlines Today:



"Historic Obama Inauguration will cost only $120 million"


"Obama Spends $120 million on inauguration; America Needs A Big Party"


"Everyman Obama shows America how to celebrate"

"Citibank executives contribute $8 million to Obama Inauguration"


Nothing like fair & unbiased coverage of the news !!!

I was thinking the same thing. I noticed that every time Bush made a mistake they jumped all over him. Obama flubbed up the actual "Swear In", and I haven't heard of too many headlines about it. For god's sake, all he had to do was repeat what the guy said!

they can't say anything about it, or they'll be labeled racist.

the best flub of the day goes to Tom Brokoff when he said,

One things for sure hats are back, It was President Kennedy who killed the hat when he appeared headless I men hat less at his inauguration."

I thank you AKMike, we were supposed to watch the inauguration speech for my Psychology class, because the professor, like the rest of these bleeding heart liberals, believes him to be the second coming. I have copied and pasted those headlines and printed them up to bring to class this afternoon. It's time for people to wake up and realize the media is broken, no longer is the media a fair and unbiased account of events. Today's news is nothing more than a sensationalized editorial passed off as an actual account of what happened. This freedom of the press has literally become it's own downfall. It would be a refereshing change to, for once, hear an unbiased and fair report on anything in today's news.

The media is in a bit of a pickle here.
Who do they blame is ANYTHING goes wrong??
The dems control everything.

Was watching the boobtube last night just channel surfing, ran across a talking heads show that made a lot of sence.

The media is in trouble, financial trouble. They are laying off people left and right. News papers around the country are going under at alarming rates. People just don't trust the newsprint and are losing interest in network news also. They see Obama as their way out. They will try to prop him up no matter what, but if he blows it bad, they will rip him apart like a donut in Rosy O'donals dressing room.

I wish that they can start getting called out on this bs. But who can do it? I don't thing that it can go on for 4 years though....maybe?!
