Media Will Quickly Revert to Defending Obama, Attacking Republicans Over Scandals
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 05/18/2013 9:15:29 AM PDT by chessplayer

The liberal media are not really "up in arms" with the Obama administration, but are simply having a "lover's quarrel" over the AP scandal in particular, NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell told CNBC host Larry Kudlow on his May 16 The Kudlow Report program.

What's more, it won't be that long until "[t]he Bill Clinton syndrome is going to be upon us, where it's time to move on, we've covered it [the media will say] and they're going to turn the fire right on Republicans as being obstructionists. Mark my word," the Media Research Center founder predicted.

"They would report what they had to report that someone else might investigate. But the zeal of going after Watergate with Woodward and Bernstein, that hasn't been there in" neither the AP, IRS, nor Benghazi scandals, the MRC president noted.

The media isn’t going to “write off” treason which resulted in the deaths of 4 Americans.

Of course. It’s the job of the Ministry of Propaganda.

They’ll tut-tut for a bit about the not-nice way BO treated his friends, then go back to kissing his fat butt.

So you are an utter defeatist and think that the commies are so powerful there is not a single shred or iota of a possibility that anyone can ever stop them.

Sounds as though you read too many comic books where the bad guys are super powerful evil geniuses.

Your attitude sucks big time and is the very reason for our (up until NOW) defeat.

You did not answer my question about what should they do. I spose you have no idea. Your defeatism and hopelessness is sickening.

So this obviously means that the msm is just another enemy of the people. Defeating the msm is a daunting task even though it appears that its influence is waning. Polls on the public awareness of the Gosnell trial seem to indicate that the public still gets most of their info from the statist propagandists.

That’s what many communists thought for years too. Until the real warriors won and the Wall fell down.

Just did a check on CNN and MSNBC. CNN is still in full blackout mode of the IRS hearing, and MSNBC is now in full DEFENSE mode of what the IRS has been doing, INCLUDING demanding what books people have read and what the content of their prayers are.

All they can do is try. They can’t succeed permanently.

Also of note is the fewer and fewer people get their news from the MSM.
