Thus it is amazing to find such fair and balanced article such as you directed me to on Bloomberg.
Bloomberg has been fawning over Obama for months, IMHO.

Thanks Missy, for the article.

I do acknowledge that electing Obama is great for black racial pride and shows the world that america is not racist. That is something to be proud of. But after that, I think Obama is a crook and he won’t do the best that can be done for your country. Maybe that will benefit us, though.

Thanks again for the article, Missy, but may I please ventilate a bit on the the partisanship of bloomberg?

Bloomberg——-another Obama-fawning media outhouse.

The most incredible article on bloomberg was the one where they were promoting MUSHROOMS as the latest save-the-world biofuel.

Missy,

Excellent article from Bloomberg that you have linked in your comment #9. Like I always say: “Like attracts like”.

From the article:

“Take a good look at some of the 17 people our nation’s president-elect chose last week for his Transition Economic Advisory Board. And then try saying with a straight face that these are the leaders who should be advising him on how to navigate through the worst financial crisis

Robert Rubbin, Ann Mulcahy, Richard Parsons, William Daley, Laura Tyson, Penny Pritzker, Warren Buffet, William Donaldson, Rahm Emanuel, etc.
(Go to the article and find out how corrupted these people are)

Many of them should be getting subpoenas as material witnesses right about now, not places in Obama’s inner circle. Did Obama learn nothing from the ill-fated choice of James Johnson, the former Fannie Mae boss, to lead his vice- presidential search committee?”

Dave Noble,

You’re right to point out that obviously everyone thinks their worldview is correct. However, that should not give way to objectivity in journalism.

Certainly, you’re also right about the difference between the editorial and front pages and the corresponding television programming. However, even in the print media today, it’s difficult to miss the loaded headlines and “code words” that slant stories one way (or the other, in some cases).

I’d never claim that Bill Clinton got a pass in the media, however, the issue is much more than criticism of GWB or Bill Clinton, or premature praise of Obama. Virtually every issue sees the same kind of journalistic slant. Immigration, Second Amendment, abortion, economy, Iraq. You name it.

Unfortunately, the media lost Tim Russert whom I had great respect for his ability and willingness to grill everyone that crossed his path, regardless of party.

Mike Gray,

Everyone thinks their world view is the correct one or it wouldn’t be their world view. However, world views should not be reflected in by journalists in their reporting of the news.

Just as there has traditionally been with the print media, where there is a distinction between the editorial page and the front page, there are programs on news channels that are editorial in nature. Examples are Chris Matthews and Keith Olberman on MSNBC, who project an unabashed liberal/Democratic bias, and Fox and Friends and Sean Hannity on Fox who offer a clear conservative/Republican bias.

If you think the MSM gave Bill Clinton a pass we live in parallel universes.

The MSM did stop hiding its bias a long time ago. That fact scares the daylights out of me. They stopped being journalists and started being a propaganda machine. Even more scary: 1.) many probably don’t realize it and 2.) the ones that do realize it don’t see the danger because they assume their worldview is the correct one.

When does the “impeach Obama” campaign start?
