Enough is the operative word.  The American people have had enough–of Left-wing media bias.

It’s over.  The bias of the NYT has been evident for decades and it gets worse every year.  It is past time for the New York Times to admit it is a biased paper, that its coverage of Republicans will be hypercritical and its coverage of Democrats will be fawning.

That’s fine, and that’s what its principal constituents in Manhattan and other Left-wing power centers want. But it is not an objective news source.  Thankfully, more and more Americans realize this.

How dare Fox News cover Obamessiah critically.  Do they think they are journalists rather than cheerleaders?

If only Fox News would do want the Obamessiah wants, abandon journalism like their colleagues and support him absolutely.  That works in North Korea.

At some point, the few serious journalists in the United States are going to have to call their colleagues to account for the health of their profession.  I have no doubt that this will make a difference in the coverage of the Messiah, it won’t.   But concern for the health of journalism, and disgust with the groupthink coverage, will require it.  Think of this as an experiment to reveal the small number of true journalists in the country beyond those at Fox News.

Old Media coverage of the shooting has been extensive. The gunman was the Left’s favorite villain: a white supremacist.  It is no surprise that the Old Media’s coverage is pushing the Left’s agenda on gun control, the need to watch “right wing extremists,” the dangers of Rush Limbaugh and talk radio, Fox News, any media outlet not controlled by the Left, etc.

 On June 1, Muslim convert Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad was arrested for killing U.S. Army Private William Long and wounding U.S. Army Private Quinton Ezeagwula at a Little Rock recruiting center.  According to reports, authorities believe Muhammad acted with political and religious motives.  Indeed, Muhammad later admitted that he was targeting the U.S. military intentionally and the vile act was done for the sake of Allah.

For the Old Media, Muhammad presents a huge problem:  he is not the type of villain they like:  He is a jihadist and black.  This murder does not fit their script.  It will not help them advance their agenda.  

So coverage has faded quickly.  The event is going down Orwell’s memory hole as rapidly as possible.  No investigation of his beliefs, no reporting on his influences or how he came to betray those who protect him.  

Two horrific shootings in June.  One will be touted by the Old Media and used to push their agenda.  They will labor to forget the other.  It will not become a symbol or used for future instruction concerning the dangers America faces.  

Seldom do you have two events so closely coincide that so clearly illuminate the culture war and the power of the Left to control events.  One event is woven into national consciousness through extensive coverage.  The other is forgotten through very little coverage.  The Left’s politics chooses.  Their power over the Old Media makes it happen.  That is the lesson of the tale of two shootings.

Some of the key findings:

Obama’s first 100 days were defined by massive spending, aggressive intervention in the private sector and proposals for a huge expansion of the federal government. Yet none of the networks aired a single story on whether Obama’s policies were pushing the U.S. toward socialism, and no reporter used the term “socialist” to describe Obama.

Not only that, network reporters never used the word “liberal” to describe either Barack Obama or his agenda during the first 100 days.

The networks lavished good press on every major initiative of the early Obama administration, including the massive stimulus package, all of the various bailouts, health care, stem cells, the environment and foreign policy.

In the days before the President unveiled his unprecedented $3.5 trillion budget — with a record-shattering $1.75 trillion deficit — four out of five statements on the evening newscasts parroted the White House spin that Obama was a deficit fighter.

Reporters treated Obama’s hugely expensive $787 billion stimulus bill to mainly positive coverage (58 percent positive, 42 percent negative).

The networks applauded Obama’s decision to use taxpayer money to fund embryo-destroying stem cell research (82% positive coverage).

Network coverage of Obama’s mortgage bailout was also positive — 59% of statements supported the bailout or wanted even more intervention, compared to 41% who opposed the bailout as unfair to responsible homeowners.

Reporters heavily skewed their coverage in favor of the President’s actions on global warming (78% positive).

President Obama’s decision to send thousands of additional troops to Afghanistan was greeted by nearly unanimous (91%) positive coverage — a far cry from the highly negative coverage of President Bush’s successful troop surge in Iraq two years ago.

Like Obama and the Democrats, the networks went on a feeding frenzy against big corporate bonuses. The networks aired six times more statements forwarding the “infuriated” reaction to business (104) than criticized politicians’ grandstanding (16).

The networks spent days decrying AIG’s $165 million bonuses, but hardly mentioned the $210 million in bonuses handed out by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the bailed-out mortgage giants with strong Democratic ties). ABC and NBC completely ignored the Fannie and Freddie bonuses, while the CBS Evening News gave it 27 seconds.

This is how propaganda works, right here in the United States.

Whittle has accomplished a tremendous task.  He documents not only the bias of CNN reporters like Susan Roesgen’s hateful and partisan attack on the Tea Party protesters in Chicago on April 15, but also the great consequences of this bias on presidential elections.

He submits that without the 15 point boost media bias gives the Democrats (as Newsweek‘s Evan Thomas stated in 2004), Obama would have won Vermont and D.C.

The costs of media bias are great.  In addition to the problems Whittle identifies, I would add an even larger one:  the destruction of America’s political principles and their supplanting by the political principles of socialism.

According to election fraud lawyer Heather Heidelbaugh, The New York Times decided suddenly to drop all efforts last October to publish stories about the Association for Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) because it came to light that ACORN was a big donor to then presidential candidate Barack Obama’s campaign. The Times is said to have told ACORN insider Anita Moncrief that they were dropping the story because it was a “game changer” for the election and might hurt Obama’s campaign.

Heidelbaugh, who worked for the Penn. Republican State Committee in a vote fraud lawsuit against ACORN, told a House Judiciary subcommittee on March 19 that she had found a close link between ACORN, Project Vote and the Obama campaign through the inside information from former ACORN worker Anita Moncrief.

What a depressing tale for those who knew what journalism once was.  Again we see that the Old Media are arms of the Democratic Party.  They did everything they could to ensure Obama was elected, Democrats control the Congress, Governorships, and other critical elected offices.  Where is the Right’s response?  Andrew Breitbart and Big Hollywood seem to be doing it themself.  Well done, Andrew and rest of the good folks at your site, but the rest of us need to help you!

Tuesday’s report at Politico.com revealed that Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, conducts daily conference calls with major players in the Old Media–CNN’s Paul Begala and James Carville and ABC’s George Stephanopoulos.  Together they work to make sure Obama’s message dominates the Old Media.

This is sickening.  If it were needed, this is additional datum revealing the Democrats and the Old Media are so closely connected we need to refer to them with one word:  Obaoldmedia?  Omedia? Or BOmedia?

The President and the Press are now one.

These are the people who are supposed to safeguard our freedoms and protect our liberties from abuses of power.  But they have abandoned journalism for politics.  This has never happened in American history.  Too bad for democracy.

They should be fired by their bosses for engaging in such behavior.  Of course, that won’t happen.

At least you can not watch them, and encourage all of your family and friends to do the same.  Join the New Media!

One would think that the Old Media would be ashamed at their behavior toward Messiah, but you be wrong.  More and more people recognize that the bulk of Old Media are an arm of the Democratic Party.  They will cover for Messiah, not challenge him.  So much for speaking Truth to power.  Or protecting the American People….or the American political process.

Goodbye to all that.

Tim Graham from newsbusters.org has more on the story here.

Now with the Democrats, it is different.  The Democrats are loath to mention Party affiliation.  So when the Democratic Governor of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich, is arrested for attempting to sell the Senate seat vacated by Obama, the networks, AP, and major media have a hard time noting his affiliation.  Giving rise to the Orwellian aspect of the U.S. media:  when a political scandal occurs, and no Party is mentioned, the Democrats must be involved.  No Party mentioned=Democrat.

I have the sense that many Old Media types are embarrassed by their Obamagasm.  But they abandoned their principles long ago.  The soft line will continue during the Obama administration, and the coverage will be even worse in 2012.
