ABC, CBS, NBC Are 'Censoring Footgage' of Union Thug Violence in Lansing
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 12/12/2012 9:35:59 AM PST by chessplayer

The pro-union broadcast networks are deliberately censoring footage of thuggish union violence directed at conservatives. If a Tea Partier had physically assaulted a liberal journalist or ripped down a structure occupied by a liberal organization all on video, the footage would be broadcast on an endless loop.

I can appreciate the comparison. Nevertheless, the only similar such action could occur (in a blatant, outright display of violence and intimidation) is in home territory - blue states where they would be protected by authorities and media.

Were it to happen here where I live in Georgia, it would be Turkey Shoot Night instead of Kristalnact. Most here would be yelling “I feel threatened! I fear for my life! ==== blam blam blam....”

Radio is unionized, I imagine TV is too.

AFTRA and the CWA mostly.

The right could have their own nightly news broadcast. Internet video, blogs, and podcasts can only go so far.

If only all of our guys can put part of their professional rivalry and jealously aside and pool resources to produce a syndicated 6:30pm newscast that will give an option to stations that are sick of carrying this state-run garbage.

I thought the same thing......

I remember years ago (studying German History) How could they (the German people) allow this. The same thought went through my mind while watching “Final Solution” videos.

Then there was Obama’s first 4 years, we thought,” How could we let this happen..........”

Well it is happening. People here in US want it, ignorant or not. They will get it.

Then it will be late, no second civil war only minor clashes here.

Hitler did not have supreme power in 1932

In the leftist world-view, unions are the workers rising up against the capitalist exploiters. Business owners and employers exploit the workers and earn unjust profits on the backs of the low paid workers.

Well, they’re wrong...and there’s an easy way to show them.
If you’re able to, and a lot of you are, simply drop out.

Pravda USA at it again. And, of course, obama is silent. Shocker.

Found this line in a novel I read a while back: "Whacking out a television reporter or a newscaster whose reportage was especially hostile to the revolution was caller dropping anchor."

For some reason, I found that line funny; not in an ironic way but in a laugh out loud way. "Dropping anchor" indeed...

Darn, darn, darn!

Make that “called dropping anchor”! With a “D” darn it.

And to think I proofread it. Badly it seems. Just call me “Tanglefinger”

IMO, when the chaos starts, those very recognizable Media people will make very nice targets.

The “free press” in this country, run largely by leftists, has determined that its role should be that of the state’s official Propaganda Apparatus.
