In a disgusting display and represented significantly to the left at a ratio of 9 to 1, journalists have run their fluttering flags up the bias flagpole. (I'm saluting) The list is out and you might be surprised by who contributed what to whom. Surprisingly (maybe not too surprisingly) the list includes many of your favorite journalists. This list includes national and local news, news papers and other contributors to what we watch and read everyday.
Although too many names to include in this humble blog, the long list can be viewed here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19113455#Cohen
My favorite contributing journalist is the New York Times Ethics Editor, Randy Cohen (D). Randy donated $585.00 to moveon.org. After he was identified as a biased journalist, Randy had the audacity to claim: “I thought moveon.org was nonpartisan and thought the donation would be allowed under the strict rule at the Times.” Randy, do you think your adoring readers are idiots? Yes?
This list includes both Republican and Democrat journalists that donated money to their party of choice. (Of the list 17 were R while 127 were D) What does all this mean? Well only three things:
1. If I donate to a candidate and then write articles about that candidate’s opponent, will I remain objective? No!
2. Will I be biased? Yes!
3. Can we trust the media? No!
The media is welcomed into this weeks pillory!
