Back in March Soledad O'Brien attempted to rewrite history to protect Barack Obama and was roundly criticized for it. As noted back then, O'Brien is very obviously an Obama/liberal sycophant yet she insists otherwise.

"I don't think I show bias in my TV show. I think I am aggressive with people about trying to find the facts behind what they say," O'Brien said. "Am I a liberal or conservative? I'm neither. Like most Americans, I find politics very frustrating. Like most Americans, I'd like to hear from politicians the facts. That is what drives me."

Self-deception can be very cruel.

In an exchange with Romney representative Barbara Comstock O'Brien was seen reading from TPM talking points

Following her being caught reading from TPM talking points she largely denied it

"Editorially, I was not reading off the Talking Points Memo."

Then O'Brien get into an exchange with Romney rep former Governor John Sununu and he just let her have it

Since they think that liberalism is such a jim dandy idea one would think that they would proudly self-identify. It must be a terribly tortured existence to be so internally conflicted.

Ship her to Cuba as a special correspondent to the Maximum Leader, Fidel. She’d finally find her true calling serving there.

It’s just amusing that they are in such denial about their very obvious bias.

One of the things that liberals do best is to lie to themselves.

Go back far enough and there was a sharp(er) division between News and Editiorial. Heck, even “60 Minutes” saved the editorial for the last 5 minutes of the program (was it Point/Counterpoint?)

They still pushed certain stories at the expense of others. So Editorial Judgment as to what constituted a Newsworthy story still skewed things leftward.

Big fat racist radicals usually are biased. Her colored glasses make her feel superior to those who don’t respect her racial superiority.
