When it comes to Obama-era scandals, the American Right’s predominant emotion is frustration — a frustration that causes hypertension levels usually seen only in Cubs fans and the unfortunates hired to do PR for Lindsay Lohan and Shia LeBoeuf...

Why is this happening? Ironically, the mainstream media heavyweights may feel liberated from the responsibility of covering Obama administration malfeasances because of the existence of the alternative conservative media that have arisen over the past 20 years — talk radio, Fox News, and multiple websites...

They’re not afraid of Obama. They’re just afraid of being called bad names by the other kids in the media playground.
O.K.
Now I get it.
We loose by fighting back because if we didn’t our enemies would be forced to do it.
Tripe from the mainstream media. Without conservative media, Obama would have a total cakewalk.
So if it weren’t for the conservative media, the rest of the media would do their jobs?? Really?
Interesting, factual, but sounds like it was written in the excuse generation department.
IOW, conservative media, which has quite rightly criticized Zero since before he took office, is to blame for the fact that the media overall is filled with Demagogic Party shills? Take a deep breath and pull your head out of your ass, Podhoretz. Thanks neverdem.
I see... they’re not covering his lies because we are? Is see...
And they would be all over it if we were NOT covering it, right?
So I guess if we stop talking about it the media will say “Hey...nobody is covering obama’s lies- we better do it...”
Un huh...
That's not the problem. The problem is the mass ignorance about Obama and the rats created by the BS media. How do we get around it so that the moderates and independents get the word when they don't listen to Rush, Fox News, etc.?
I could never truly appreciate the climate of the German people and especially press in the ‘30’s that led to the rapture of Adolph Hitler. Thank God for involvement of our conservative press or I shudder to think how much worse the US would have looked like 2009-present.
No John, they, the lib media hacks, don’t feel like they don’t have to cover Obama’s many sins because the conservative media does...lib media just refuses to cover any wrongdoing by Obama because they basically approve of all his wrongdoing. In fact, they’d like him to do more and worse wrongdoing.
He is the Executive Editor of “Commentary” magazine, a neo-Con publication that routinely attacks traditional Conservatives and the Tea Party.
JohnPod, as he was called when he wrote for National Review Online, has passionately supported Amnesty and mass immigration since at least 2005, when George Bush and John McCain tried to stuff Amnesty down our throats.
JohnPod is center-left on almost EVERY issue I care about.
We do agree on USA defense spending and Israel.
However, he often urges Israel to compromise and to make dangerous concessions to the Palestinians, which is completely insane.
You totally nailed it, I was going to reply but your comments did it for me.
John Podhoretz, who is usually sensible, can write an opinion piece that seems to come from outer space from time to time. There’s a screw loose somewhere and it causes this level of ludicrous thinking from time to time.
Mr. P, that's the lamest excuse I've heard all day.
Wow. Tokyo Rose could learn something here...
