Why Media Bias Matters

The ignorance and lazy complacency of the American people play directly into the hands of the liberal press in this country.

For instance, the media prefers to keep the public in the dark about the John Edwards "Love Child" scandal because he is a liberal Democrat. The American people waddle along, happily ignorant... As this Rasmussen Poll about Vice Presidential preferences reveals:

A new Rasmussen Reports national survey finds that 56% have at least a somewhat favorable opinion of former North Carolina Senator John Edwards, including 21% who view him Very favorably. He slightly edges Senator Hillary Clinton, who is viewed at least somewhat favorably by 51%, with 27% characterizing their view of her as Very Favorable.

56%... Amazing. Maybe 1/3 of the country is hard-core Democrat... The kind that cares nothing of a man's character, as long as he is sufficiently liberal and has a D by his name. But much of this 56% is made possible by the willing, biased accomplices in the mainstream media.

Since the media is how we get our information...it's the only way we know what we know about what we know about WHO we know....(WHEW!)

Most people didn't know FDR was in a wheelchair because he instructed the media not to show it. That was in a time when the media actually tried to HELP...sigh...

JFK's trysts, Lindbergh's isolationist and pro-Nazi alliances, etc. etc. It's all stuff we didn't know.

While 56 percent of those polled view Edwards in a positive light; they didn't vote for him to be the Dem's presidential candidate, did they?

It's kinda like comparing apples and oranges, I think.
