Independent Thinker

Food for Thought

How the main street media always screws it up??

I like to think I am fairly independent minded, I like to hear all sides of the argument before I make my mind. I will admit sometime I can never make my mind because both sides are correct in certain aspects. The MSM has shown a fair bit of bias to the democrats in this election cycle, and I’ll be the first to admit that Fox News has for the first time lived up to their claim of “Fair and Balanced” coverage compared to other cable news networks.

When the MSM’s realize their bias and try to pivot to the center and they screw it up again. I am talking about the idiot Jerome Corsi’s recent book about Obama. In their hysteria to correct their Obama leaning reporting, the MSM have now decided to invite this guy on all cable news shows with the full knowledge that half the stuff he is saying is made up crap. Since when did this become responsible journalism, when you try to correct one bias with another bias. I mean when you invite this guy on Larry King Live that is just giving him more room to spew more of his bullshit. I am truly amazed.

  1. The Obama team did respond quite vigorously with this booklet:

  2. Oh I know they responded and I hope they keep pounding on this guy, but my problem is with MSM, I don’t think they are being responsible in giving this guy any kind of forum to talk from.

    I don’t think Freedom of Speech applies here. This is just MSM trying to assuage their guilt for not being balanced to begin with. People would not be paying any attention to this guy if they knew their sources of information were giving them a unbiased, fair account.

    Thks for your comment btw.
