Two-dozen conservative activists and media personalities on Tuesday urged members of their respective groups to switch off the "biased news media," claiming in an open letter that establishment media are "out of control with a deliberate and unmistakable leftist agenda."
Though these groups frequently complain about a left-leaning media bias, they claimed in the letter that the political slant this cycle is unprecedented.
"In the quarter century since the Media Research Center was established to document liberal media bias, there has never been a more brazen and complete attempt by the liberal so-called 'news' media to decide the outcome of an election," wrote Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, and other conservative leaders.
They ticked off a litany of grievances against the news media, saying they've been "shamefully smearing" Mitt Romney over the course of the election.

I fear this might be too much to overcome. This is beyond 1980....of course the American people righted that. I hope we do the same in November.
I’m sort of ready for this to be over....

I can imagine the questions Pravda USA will be asking at the presidential debates. I’m sure they will submit them for approval to the WH beforehand.

And Fox is getting there as I don’t watch much anymore..Waiting for Becks network to come to Direct Tv.
The sooner folks realize that, the sooner they'll know exactly what's going on.
I know folks here know it, but referring to an "MSM" infers there is a main stream media. There isn't. That plays into their hands, because it leads folks to think, "Awe it's just the media." They don't get it. We have to stop playing like there is an MSM.
It's a wigged out almost off the scale far Left Marxist cabal intent on taking this nation down.
It's a 24/7/365 propaganda effort for the DNC. End of story. DNCp
NPR yesterday had this to say about Mitt’s speech in NYC:
Very close paraphrase: “Mitt Romney’s speech was out of character for the Republican nominee. It was positive, well-written, and well-delivered.”
That sure sounds like a compliment, doesn’t it? But with two seconds thought, you can see that they are characterizing Romney as a gloomy guy, with badly-written speeches, who doesn’t deliver them nearly as well as the god-like Obama. But yesterday was atypical, in that he didn’t suck as badly as usual.
They struggle to be objective. And they fail miserably.
The best bet is that when the Republicans are in power, they instruct the Federal Communications Commission to change its Newspaper/Broadcast Cross-Ownership rules back to the way they were in 1975, with some enlargements based on changing technologies.

“Beginning in 1975, FCC rules banned cross-ownership by a single entity of a daily newspaper and television or radio broadcast station operating in the same local market.”
The utter corruption and bias seen in the MSM today are a reflection of Media cross-ownership in the United States by “The Big Six” corporations.

The Republicans need to make it abundantly clear that the MSM has so undermined speech in the United States that it threatens our constitutional form of government. Therefore the Federal Communications Commission needs to, in effect, break up these corporations into different corporate entities with different boards of directors, to protect our political speech from the control of a limited and biased number of individuals.
The public cannot be expected to make an informed political decisions if they are prevented from getting a spectrum of opinion and information.
BUT they would be wrong.. it is precedented...
For at least thirty years maybe 50...
The democrats have even run blatant traitors before(the Clintoons and Francois Kerry).. before Obama..
This has been going on for a long time..
The democrat party has been a latrine since before Rooseveldt..
But they had to be careful back when Republicans had some BALLS..
The democrats are still in the latrine but the republicans are women (both sexes)..
Electing Tampons for Federal and most State officials..
