The Media Full Court Press
Well the gloves are off, all illusions of unbiased reporting are now gone. The left leaning media (as opposed to fox) is making a full court press to blunt the Palin momentum and they are pulling out all stops.
Just stopped by Yahoo to get my news, and here is what they have on the front page:
"Sarah Palin and her fellow RNC speakers weren't completely truthful at times." - sure wished they did that after Biden's and Obama's speech.
"Where are minorities on RNC's prime-time stage?" - ah racism, the last refugee of the left.
"Cindy McCain disagrees with Palin" - mildly interesting, but is this really a front page news story.
"Biden says Palin family off limits to critics" - way to spin this positively after it exploded in your face. Where were you 4 days ago?
So, not a single positive or even neutral news story about her speech, just pure attack jobs.
Yep, no bias here folks.

The left bias of the media was made abundantly clear to me 20 years ago.
When CSPAN came to my area ....... I'd watch the house of reps. during the day and the "evening news" later.....
I thought I had watched ANOTHER house of reps on another planet in another galaxy ..... when I saw the news ....... selected sound bites ..... usually favoring dems and others derogatory to repubs ......
Some folks are NOW starting to see what I have seen for two decades ......
I may be old ..... but I'm twenty years ahead of the ...... not so swift.....

Political Correctness defined :
A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

I just heard poll numbers on: Is the media trying to hurt Sarah Palin?
51% YES.
Anyone else see the MSNBC clip that FOX picked up when McCain announced her in Akron? They ran a "Breaking News" banner headline over at the live feed were she met up with McCain. It read:
BREAKING NEWS
How many houses does Palin add
to the Republican ticket.
O’Reilly of Fox picks up on blatant media bias from MSNBC Right and Left
Put Obermann aside...how dumb are they over at MSNBC?
Maybe the Fairness Doctrine ain't such a bad idea after all.

I get my news from many different tv channels and online sources, but I have to admit that Fox is my fav for this very type of thing. Do they slant to the right? Maybe just a little, depending on who you are watching @ the time, but for the most part they tell it like it is in plain english without the spin.
LOL Megyn whopped homey all over in that interview. I just loved his responses... "well, we didn't really have time for that blah blah... what a joke"

The media like we Conservatives were blind sided by the selection of Palin. For us it SARACUDA'S "the one we've been waiting for". To the media SARACUDA is the one they fear. Everything they have mounted on Palin is based upon innuendo. Any successes are set aside as they viciously continue their attacks.
Then after her speech, begin to take the facts she uses to make her point and claim she is attacking.
Libs can't compete in the arena of ideas. If they can't refute an issue, they rely on attacking the character. "Kill the messenger because you hate the message".
The media made this war, and SARACUDA will take it to them.
