The corporate media is going all out to smear Obama!

[Joanne98]

So far today's stories.. Obama and female moviestar exchange emails. Supremes court desion. McCain is tougher on child rape.. McCain supports gun ownership. Now they are being sneaky in the bias but it's there. We need to keep track of this shit. Email them and counter with internet articles and commentary. They obviously are NOT going to stop.

4. Up Is Down! MSM's Media's Agenda

John McCain's experience in saying "yes" to Bush's economic proposals. Freakin insane. Hey, lets make the tax cuts permanent so that we are stuck with the policies that got us in this ditch. How about even more deregulation.

This is why it will not be a cake walk. This is not just bias. This is a GOP agenda.

3. The Only Thing That Will Stop It Is Threatening To Boycott Sponsors

5. The sliming ain't even begun, dear hearts.

Clinton's supporters said over and over again that as soon as the MSM was certain they had killed off Hillary that they would turn their weapons on Obama. Thus far, BO is still getting treated with kid gloves by those who actively toured him over HRC, but that is changing and will continue to change more and more.

And if you think threatening a boycott of anything or anyone will do anyone any good, you still have much to learn about the media's influence on American politics today.

7. The MSM flogging the Jeremiah Wright story really showed that Obama was treated with kid gloves

6. This is no surprise when you realize who OWNS the media: The Corporations

Corporations like Republican administrations because of BIG tax breaks and policies that help inflate the take for their shareholders.

Not their employees.

Their SHAREHOLDERS.

NBC/MSNBC/CNBC? Owned by General Electric.

ABC? Owned by Disney.

CBS? Owned by Viacom.

Once the media is controlled by corporate interests, objectivity goes out the window. They have a dog in the fight, and it's the Republican.

If Hillary had been the nominee, we would've had to endure rehashes of Gennifer Flowers and Paula Jones and Travelgate and Whitewater Redux.

No matter who the Democrat is, they're not going to get a fair shake from the MSM unless something is done to wrest the news outlets out of the clutches of the corporations.
