AP: Ron Fournier - don't bother worrying about the 'bad news' if he wrote it

[Coexist]

- that is the equivalent of worrying about Joe Scarborough's concern for Obama

- that is the equivalent of worrying about Rush Limbaugh's Breaking News about a new Obama 'scandal'

- that is the equivalent of worrying about Ann Coulter's latest quote from her appearance on GMA

- that is the equivalent of worrying about Michele Malkin's diatribe in her latest blog post.

Those on the left like Media Matters and FDL have already led several letter writing campaigns hoping the AP would address Fournier's inability to be objective. Here are some links if you are new to Ron's subtle smears:

AP’s Ron Fournier Strikes Again - Writes Hit Piece On Obama’s VP Pick

Is Fournier saving or destroying the AP?

Fournier counts the "I's" in Clinton's speech

ACTION: Tell AP To Remove Ron Fournier From the Presidential Beat

I could go on an on...

Before you post an AP article - check the byline. Would you freak out over such 'concern' from Sean Hannity like this? Then don't bother being upset with the more mainstream slanted, biased drivel from Fournier. Instead, write a LTTE noting Fournier's bias and requesting they use local reporters to cover national issues instead of relying on Fournier and the AP.

Just an FYI

2. OK, so I shouldn't be concerned about this article that was just posted on

my local paper's website. Also this poll was was just referenced in a discussion of the electoral vote on CBS Early Show. Not posting link because I don't want anyone going "nuclea" on me

Racial Views Steer Some White Dems Away From Obama

3. that has already been posted here several times this morning

my OP was just a general info post, because I've noticed that some people get worried. Fournier is a partisan, and if people realize that when they read the article, maybe they won't freak out so much.

That was my point.

I changed the OP to try to reflect that.

5. I saw that after I posted. Opened your post 1st before looking down page. n/t

4. Why be "concerned" about a "given"?

The whole thing is an oxymoron.

It's a known fact that racism exists in the country but there are lunatic fringe-biased M$M who want to play the race card up in a big way now because they know the party they support, shill for, and finance, is losing. The worldwide economic collapse has undeniably underscored how much the repuke party policy has been an Epic Fail and they are trying everything they can to distract from that (including covering yet another idiotic OJ trial). :eyes:

6. it sounds like they're setting up 'upset scenarios; if you ask me.

being pro-active with reasons why Obama might inexplicably lose.

7. I say we flood this jerk with his own bullshit...send his stories back to him and address it:

RON FOURNIER IS A LIAR! Or whatever else comes to mind:D I think by hitting back with their own crap shows that people are watching.

8. Go for it!

10. The fact that all the talking heads are discussing this on the Sunday shows says to me

that they're all in on the scheme to help McSame and the Repukes steal this election.
