Dear Members of the American Press, We warned you. We told you a long time ago that the moment might come when He would turn on you. If you let this AP thing pass without much objection, you will be effectively out of cred, and out of business. And your current distress will multiply if unopposed.

So, do your jobs in a fully independent manner, as you used to do some years back before you got lazy and agenda-driven.

Right Now is probably your last chance to avoid sinking into irrelevance.

Do your jobs!

Well said.

There’s a reason I invented the term, “Enemedia.”
Enemy+Media

You and I both know that your open letter will fall on deaf ears. The press as I knew it growing up is dead. It is a political agenda machine for the left and they can’t see past the agenda even at the expense of their very existence.

I applaud your efforts but don’t expect the lemmings of the media to stop their head long rush towards the ocean.

The next “Nuremberg Process” (and there *will* be one) is going to be interesting and deadly, I think.

Only one little problem here...

The MSM doesn’t give a twit about relevancy in the public’s eye. They believe the public to be generally stupid, and the only masters they serve are those who put them in front of the camera... the network owners.

As for the owners, if their desires were profit and ratings centered, they would have changed course a LONG time ago.

The owners of our mainstream media have a different master... one who hates our constitution and freedoms. This master of theirs has the world’s pocketbook at their disposal... primarily foreign sources of communist influence.

Please don’t think for a second your “warning” even registers on their radar.

before you got lazy and agenda-driven.

Before? You're rather naive if you think that the press has never been lazy or agenda driven.

You would have a much better chance of converting a radical Muslim Jihadi into becoming Christian than to convert a liberal/democrat reporter into becoming a fair reporter . Reporters are socialists/communists and the most rabidly faithful ones too:It's why they become reporters to spread their false religion of socialism.It's their main purpose in life to change the world not to report news but to misinform people

I also meant it to give a hint of enema, too.
Two birds with one stone.
They deserve the implied insult.

A few in the press get it, but by and large they are ideologically driven and will overlook foibles or find excuses for any liberal.

Right now they are adrift. The Messiah and the Messiahette are both under attack and it’s not clear which one is going to survive.

Actually, I hope it won’t fall on deaf ears, and here’s why I took the time to write it.

Surely, as in any other group, there are some who feel unfulfilled, who feel their career isn’t going where their idealism first took it. When interviewed, many “journalists” say they followed that career “to make a difference.”

So, the hard-bitten, hard agenda idealogues won’t take heart or change. But there are probably a few in every newsroom who are on the fence — and might see the light in time, and write something so brilliant their editors will run with it.

But I do think this is their last chance.

Dear Members of the American Press,
We supported you when you helped us stand behind Barack Obama and we still do. We are aware of all the vicious lies, slanderous, racist attacks, and time-wasting vendetta-driven hearings propagated by the far-right and their cronies in congress. If there are modest errors or oversights made by Our President of his administration they are nothiung compared to the years of war, misery, and economic disaster wrought upon us by the trigger haoppy cowboy and his evil ilk.
Don’t worry - we;re the same nation,
the same people,
the same country that elected Obama,
and we assure you - as if you needed assurance - we’re not getting any smarter.
Sincerely,
The American People

This has been going on for many years. The press fell into this during the 30s when most of them became dick-lickers for FDR who came close to making himself dictator and who had the full slavish backing of the mainstream press. The MSM these days are fully National Socialist Democrats.

You have more faith than I do in that but I hope you’re right.
