The mask is off. The pretense over.
After decades of pretending they're not biased leftward – even though
everyone else knew it – America's "mainstream media" have finally,
during 2008, dropped the façade of fairness and impartiality.
# The big media openly worship Barack Obama. MSNBC's Chris Matthews,
upon listening to Obama speak, says almost mystically, "I felt this
thrill going up my leg." Rolling Stone magazine rhapsodizes, "There is
a sense of dignity, even majesty, about him …
# For its October cover, The Atlantic magazine hires a photographer
who intentionally photographs John McCain to look ugly and
threatening. ("I left his eyes red and his skin looking bad," she
later admits, adding, "maybe it was somewhat irresponsible for [the
Atlantic] to hire me."
# The New York Times publishes Barack Obama's op-ed on Iraq policy,
but refuses to run McCain's op-ed. At the same time, all three
network's news anchors tag along with Obama like groupies on his
overseas stump tour, while McCain receives scant media coverage.
# The pregnancy of Sarah Palin's teen daughter is national news, as is
the presence in the Alaska governor's mansion of a tanning bed (which
Palin paid for herself). But Obama being mentored and nurtured for
years by terrorists (William Ayers), communists (Frank Marshall Davis)
and America-hating racists (Rev. Jeremiah Wright), which helped shape
him into the most left-wing, America-blaming, radically pro-abortion
and tyrant-appeasing presidential candidate in U.S. history, is not
news.
Yes, the media have long been biased to the left. But this year it's
different. This year, the mask has come off and the real face of the
mainstream media – or MSM as they're popularly called – has been
revealed for all to see. And it ain't pretty.
