resident Obama is trying to impose ideological conformity on the press. He is demanding that the media more favorably report his positions and present him as a pragmatic centrist. During a recent speech to journalists, he denounced their supposed equivalence on the burning issues of the day. Instead, Mr. Obama insisted that they portray his leadership in a more glowing light. He brazenly violated media independence, putting government pressure on journalists akin to that in authoritarian socialist states.
This bears on your reporting, Mr. Obama said to the Associated Press. I think that there is oftentimes the impulse to suggest that if the two parties are disagreeing then theyre equally at fault and the truth lies somewhere in the middle. And an equivalence is presented which I think reinforces peoples cynicism about Washington in general. This is not one of those situations where theres an equivalency.

Media to Obama - Standing Ovation
Just like a liberal...
No matter how much you give them, they always want more.
The Marxist in Chief has exposed the medias agenda and they will go down with him in November.
Yep. The apprentice dictator speaks and all of them, Fox included, will fall in line.
The First Fool already sassed SCOTUS, and one of the consequences of that are due in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals today at 10 AM.
Now, the First Fool is fooling around with “those who buy ink by the barrel”.
THe MSM is already portraying him as he demanded. And he whats then to go even further. obamma has gotten so many passes.
Just associating the sentiment with the image...
If only 10% of them would do their “Job”, that ink might be worth something. There needs to be a healthy fear of what this Marxist and his followers want. It’s not free speach.
LOL!
Leftist never change. Ovomit is no different than Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, or any other despotic socialist who has inflicted ruin upon the human race. It isn’t enough that subjects accept the end result, they have to believe in the means that gets them there, however wrong that may be.
Heil, Usurper!
>>> obama-wants-a-one-party-media
I dispute the above claim.
Obama doesn’t want “One-Party” per se, what he wants is the media’s devotion to HIM and what HE represents, even if he had to hijack ‘Democrat’ party name for it.
So many creepy things so far (to a normal person in US) can trace their parallels to happenings in pre-Soviet era. The problem is our children weren’t taught and learned from history.
Sorry, not just pre-Soviet, but Mao, Chavez, other communists/dictators, etc.
“(Obama to media - Obey)”
And they replied with “how high?”
The press is already on their knees in front of Obama - what more could he ask of them? (Sound in the distance of a zipper being pulled down...)
“There needs to be a healthy fear of what this Marxist and his followers want.”
There most assuredly is such a fear.
Note all the carry permits, gun sales, and the level of awareness of issues regarding the Constitution.
;-)
No, it’s not freedom of speech OR freedom for Americans. Does anyone have any doubt of this now?
Oh God....IF ONLY he would go back to where he came from (Hell?).
