A stunning example of the incredible disconnect between the mainstream media and the blogosphere is this video of the interim Fannie Mae CEO, Daniel Mudd, addressing the Congressional Black Caucus, including Barack Obama, at their swearing-in ceremony in 2005. Although this video is spreading quickly in the blogosphere, you have yet to see or hear anything about it in the MSM. As you can see in the video, Mudd talks about the problems of Fannie Mae yet that didn't keep Obama and other Democrats from taking large contributions from that organization or doing anything to try to fix it. Here is a transcript of CEO Mudd addressing the Democrats (emphasis mine):

...and our paycheck.
I saw a thread on this last night and wondered why it wasn’t in breaking. This is incriminating stuff.
If Drudge picks it up then very grudgingly, maybe after a week, they will make a small mention of it.

Spread this out there folks. Right now, Obama is trying to take advantage of the economic cycle- cut off his attack. Everyone check your local paper’s website to see if it has forums, post to blogs, and write letters to the editor.
I am writing a blob for the newspaper I write for talking about Obama’s contributions etc., but this seems not really worth a mention. The context is referring to the Congressional Black Caucus. He isn’t really addressing them as Dems, but as members of the CBC. Do the two go together? Yes, but in this case he really is tying it to the helping minority thing and that is the friendship with the CBC.
blob....oh my. Blog. There is still a lot of stuff to get at, such as McCain’s proposal in 2005.
While the polling is close, I believe it is far worse than the numbers reflect given social apprehension of middle-of-the-road uncommitted respondents to appear racist by not supporting Obama,” wrote former Democratic congressional candidate Paul Hackett on the Daily Kos blog. “Thus instead of being down in Ohio by 3 or 4 points I would argue that for planning purposes the working assumption should indicate that Obama is down in Ohio by roughly 10 points.”
Is this something new to anyone who is even mildly informed?
It’s time to get in their face, I took it too some former friends and told them Obama was a black Communist — They blew up, I laughed in their face. Well so much for that .... LOL.
Please add me to the OAW ping list. Thanks!

Roger that....Calling in to Wtkk Boston 96.9
they are McCain friendly but getting the word out.
Do I correctly read this whole FM/FM thing as having a racial core functionality?
Doesn’t matter.
I could show this to some of the Obama supporters I know and they would just get a glassy look in their eyes, stare off at some imaginary spot on the wall behind me and let a globbit of drool spill for the side of their mouth.
Everybody post this link in a bulletin on myspace/facebook! This is the new grass roots people. Seed this vid and let bambi harvest what he sowed!
Explosive Video, Fannie Mae CEO calling Obama and the Dems the "Family" and "Conscience" of Fannie Mae
This is an oligarchy. Now Biden says it’s a patriotic duty to pay more taxes? We revolted in 1776 for far less, what amounted to a 4% luxury tax. How brain-dead our population has become.
It’s good, but I’d love to hear a lil Sister Sledge in the background..............We awr familee!,.......I got all my sistass with ME............We awr familee!
Now this is the kind of thing that people can understand easily.

That certainly seems to be the issue. A govt giveaway promoted by your basic community organizers to provide home loans to those who shouldn’t be in the market for a TV loan much less a home loan.
One good thing is that Mudd will not be getting his "Golden Parachute".
"I’d love to hear a lil Sister Sledge in the background..............We awr familee!,.......I got all my sistass with ME............We awr familee!"
We need Doug from Upland on this!
This has been buried by the MSN
The very thing the OAW RT ought to keep for reference.
Added it to the wiki.

here is a good start for the MSM email list in this thread, we should add newspaper editors etc.

and this is a list of about 40 advertisers from when US magazine was Bashing Sarah Palin

should be a good start
According to radio’s Tom Marr today - Fanny’s top 3 contribution amounts went to Dodd, Obama and Kerry - in that order.
FReep ‘em where they feel it directly so there is no ambiguity:
Someone suggested filling out those little postcards that fall out of the center of their magazines (US, Oprah’s-O, & whom ever). The magazine pays the postage and there is just enough room to adequately express your opinion’s to the company directly responsible!
I like this idea, hat-tip to fellow forgotton Freeper!
I did that just the other day, the Boston globe sent a letter that if I subscribed to the bastard child of the NY times they would give me a $40 visa gift card I wrote back in the prepaid envelope that I would not read their liberal drivel for $400
