And They Call it "The News"...

News Busters has a good article about the "News Media" and the way they're portraying us ObamaCare Protesters.
ABC framed its Tuesday night story, on citizens using town hall forums held by Members of Congress to express opposition to ObamaCare, around undermining their credibility by asserting the reaction “appears to be orchestrated” and “organized” and thus is forcing the victimized “White House to push back” by “fighting Internet fire with fire.”

Here's my question. Who are they reporting this TO?

1) The mindless, Obama-Zombies who're already on board?

2) Each other, so they feel better about lying?

3) Or The People—who are the very ones they're lying about...?

I don't think they've thought this through very well.

Or is it just me?

  2. In reference to the previous comment, I can assure you wtp is not the only one outraged and offended at biased and dishonest "news" reporting from the dominant media. And in response to your implication that wtp is just talking to themselves, let me assure you wtp and the blog are MOST respected and the bog should be getting many more visits as the word spreads.

  3. Don't kid yourself - the places is a ghost town, and the opinions rival those of the JFK conspirists.

  5. Yeah I am. We citizens have to keep an eye on the fringe element.

  6. Anon the Troll,

    This blog is barely a month old, I think. How embarrassing for us that it doesn't have national notoriety!

    Besides which, it was set up as a communication page for a small group of local activists. It's not meant for general consumption—we're not seeking national readership. That you stumbled on it at all surprises the hell out of me!

    Which is what makes you so special and entertaining!

    But you'll only be allowed to comment if you remain polite, and realize that it is not meant as a public forum for all and sundry.

    "Fringe element"? Hardly.

    We're members of the Right Wing Extremist Mob....

    You've GOT to get the labels right!
