Just thought I'd say that this morning, Boston TV news was saying that US default is inevitable on Oct 17 unless the Republicans raise the debt ceiling.
There is much dishonesty in that claim, but I'm quite sure it puts a smile on Obama's face.

“Sounds like a worthy endeavor.”
The left used similar tactics to expose supporters of traditional marriage; the right should do the same.

Sounds like a worthy endeavor, but it will only be viewed by people as another extreme rightest endeavor. Truth being the extreme, but as a person who has built a personal life code around truth and honesty I can tell you from experience, most people find that very extreme. I've lost friends and family over being honest and truthful with them, no matter how tactful. In everyday life people are used to being lied too. They themselves will tell small white lies and think nothing of it.(somebody in history noted this and told big lies) So to have the truth be told is shocking and extreme.
But, that is not where my mind wanders this morning in regards to this discussion. It wanders to the First Amendment. Does Freedom of the Press mean these journalists, and I use that term loosely, have the Right to push propaganda? When they present opinion pieces and interviews as news to forward an agenda is that not fraud?
Just as Freedom of Speech does have a redline (LOL), like yelling 'fire in a crowded theatre,' does Freedom of the Press? We often say the government can't censor the Press as this laymen's article notes, "In other words, the government does not have the right to try to control or block certain things from being published by the press," The First Amendment and Press Freedom.
We often say the press is carrying the progressive agenda. Does the Press have the Right to lie to the American people? In fact I'd dare say now as often is displayed the Press gets their talking points from the government and while the government may not exactly be accused of censorship, they are controlling the message from the Press.
When we here the exact same phrases used, the exact same words and meme from reporter to reporter is this not evidence of a form of censorship? And when the journalist or news agency agrees to carry this propaganda to defraud the public is this not a violation of First Amendment? The whole idea behind a Free Press isn't to just protect the Press. The amendment is there to protect, We the People, from a dishonest, controlling government.

Journalists have got themselves set up as some kind of sacred cow in American society.
AS IF they are infallible, morally superior and absolutely objective.
THAT hasn't been the case for a VERY long time.

This is the fight wher Free Republic can make its mark. We are denizens of the web and all the media that entails and our attention shod be turned full blast on the media that is tipping the scales of government in this country.
Let’s take them down.

Naw! It’s still “kill all of the lawyers first” and then “kill all of the LIBERAL journalists second.”
You have to remember it is the lawyers who have destroyed our freedoms but journalists have helped.

For the record, who is one of the Brietbart leftist advertisers?
If they are advertising there, doesn’t that by definition counter your claim?
On topic, he is espousing the battle Media Research Center has been waging for years and the MSM still is.

Breitbart is using ad managers, who aim their ads quite independently of what the sites are doing. Thus, here in Norway, I typically get political ads from Labour (deep red socialist) and affiliates.
And from socialist newspapers.
