Why even call it a "Federal Writers Project?" More accurate to all it "Liberal Propaganda Project."

Just the same MSM with a different entity signing the paychecks.

Memo to Mark: if your material doesn’t change but your paymaster does that’s just another bailout.
Sorry no sale.

What did they call it in Germany? Ministry of Propaganda? Something like that; anyway they made no effort to hide their intentions in Germany.

And all over the country, universities are still cranking out Journalism graduates, the equivalent of buggy-whip makers. Universities should be sued for malpractice when they take money from ignorant students who are preparing for a dying profession.

....absolutely right!....Woodward&Bernstein started the golden age of so called “investigative reporting”....every college enlarged their J-School....those fiefdoms die hard....they’ll hang on until no students matriculate.

....yep and they will have a photo journalism team to do Rust Belt photos instead of Dust Bowl ones....Hitler saw those and read the Grapes of Wrath too....he figured America was so demoraslized we would be no problem for him...why give the Chinese similar impressions?

I propose instead a Faith-based initiative: let all those bozos go ring the bells for the Salvation Army, learn a little humility in the process, maybe, and meet the worthy Americans who actually do something for others.
To: YepYep
It seems I recently read that a journalist or reporter in a mid-size town wanted to start an association that would encourage journalists to tell the truth, to be conservative, to tell actual details of the story, to present without bias in print. How refreshing that would be.

Boy oh boy, this is s shocker. You mean a degree in Journalism means you're completely unqualified for any other type of job?!? Oh well, at least they can say, "Would you like fries with that".
Oops, my bad. The illegals these 'journalists' all love and support so much already have those jobs.
Hey, I've got it.. they can go work for Landscaping Companies! Wait.... wrong again, no they can't. Illegals have those too.
Guess they'll just have to stick their collective heads in the oven.

I think in the back of my mind I was always afraid that just because the liberal Nazis that make up the modern media were unemployed didn't mean they were going away. I can just see the products of their work now.
Oliver Stone like fantasies about how Bush was much worse than anyone even realized. "Analytic" works that explore why Bush wasn't assassinated, how much better America would have been if he had been assassinated, and how his assassin could have gotten off if he'd claimed to be "just a patriot doing his job". And lengthy, turgid volumes of prose about how BHO really is the Messiah, chronicling his every turn of the wrist and pause of speech as a new revelation to Mankind.
Just like they do now.

I saw this coming a mile away. No way the Dems would let there good friends of MSM be harmed by there own bais and lack of ability (espically when that was what got the Dems in power in the first place).
