The Ad the CBS ‘Standards and Practices’ Dept. Doesn’t Want You To See (Ground Zero mosque)
bigjournalism.com ^ | July 9, 2010 | Frank Ross

As the networks die, taking their news divisions along with them, their function is now less bringing the news to you than blocking the news they’d prefer you not see and hear about. They’ve all become Baghdad Bob, fingers in their ears, oblivious to the carnage going on just outside their doors while humming “Happy Days Are Here Again,” because, after all, it fits the narrative.

ABC CBS NBC, blocking the news YOU should not see (according to Zero)
That is their promo line.

We must not do anything to unmask our dear leader, Shabazz Obama!

Shamelessly stolen from actsnow in the comments section.

To take action in the face of a corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one’s self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice.

“Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all.”

— Michael Rivero

The drive by media doesn’t want you to be distracted by information. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy4_cxUCIlw

I’ve never said anything good about Obama that I can recall, but that’s a good speech.

If absolutely nothing else gets through to the legions of apathetic Americans who would rather watch sports than anything 'political' and who find reading to be tiring and, for them, unproductive, this blatant attempt to insult the victims of 9/11 - and all Americans - while pointedly celebrating a major Islamist victory by building a Muslim mosque at the site of the destroyed World Trade Center in Manhattan, should be a wake up call.

Why the brain-dead N.Y.C. 'community board' ever agreed to give the go ahead this vicious insult to the 3,000 victims of Islamic terrorism is beyond any sane person's understanding. The 'outreach' excuse they've used doesn't fly with me. The media is so far left today that the've become little more than left-wing/Obama propaganda tools and should be viewed as such. That is, useless as a source of any kind of relevant information. May they soon expire.

If you are on facebook, you can post it to your profile. I did. This mosque must not be built.
