Thanks for posting this article. Lots of good stuff in here about how the old media set out to destroy conservatives, from a guy who was there in the trenches. It’s sickening what they were able to get away with. Thank God that’s changing.

This paragraph does a good job of describing what these jackals were all about:

“The Sally Quinns of the world were given cachet because liberals like Ben Bradlee got to do whatever the hell they pleased with their power in the media and there wasn’t a damn thing the rest of the country could do as one conservative after another from Barry Goldwater to Ronald Reagan to Robert Bork to Clarence Thomas, Dan Quayle, Miguel Estrada, and on and on right up to today’s Sarah Palin were trashed. And I do mean trashed. They were painted as idiots, warmongers, bigots, boobs, religious fanatics, wild-eyed zealots, racists, sexual harassers, and God only knows what else. This kind of garbage was bannered and blared unchallenged from every one of the three major networks, the New York Times, the Washington Post, Time, Newsweek and the rest of the liberal acolyte media organs. For decades. Until the advent of everything from conservative magazines such as the one you are reading to talk radio to the Internet to Fox collectively shattered the media monopoly.”

Oh, and that’s the first I heard of JFK smoking dope in the Whitehouse!

I didn't know he smoked, but he had a quack doctor that gave him shots of nobody knows what to this day, allegedly for his “back”. These shots were given on a more regular basis as time passed. They do know they contained an opiate of some kind.

That is supposedly why Kennedy did so poorly in his talks with Nikita K. He was stoned on his a$s.
