I completely concur, GZ. The real crime is that Jay Rosen and his radical media friends drink, laugh, toast, and boast that they are the exalted ones who are annointed to choose which candidate the American voters hear from everyday. Recall that video where he was caught laughing about derailing Michele Bachmann's campaign and boasting that he and his NYT friends decide who is electable and who gets coverage? As I know you know, there is absolutely nothing radical, crazy, or extreme about Congresswoman Bachmann. She is a very professional, intelligent, and skilled leader with excellent conservative ideas for our nation. The media leftists simply hate her because conservative ideas are a threat to the anti-nationalism that keeps radicals like Professor Rosen and his NYT buddies employed and their media's corporate sponsors happy. Damnit! It made my blood boil that the media ba$tards resurrected Juan McShame's campaign in 2008 and now they're doing the same damn thing for Gingrich! How in the hell do liberal mediots decide who to cover? Recall that they completely dropped Bachmann after she won the initial straw poll in Iowa last summer. A winner should receive increased coverage, but that was never the case! I know that the word "conspiracy" is a tainted word, but what the hell else could explain why the media instantly derailed the early winner in Iowa?!?! I do not think that most people understand the gravity of the mass media's influence on elections. According to Rosen, if he and his friends think a candidate is "extreme" they stop covering him/her. Who in the hell is Professor Rosen and the NYT to decide that?!?!?! Damn this!!! -nfg- Sorry for the rant, but this really makes my blood boil. We live in a completely orchestrated and controlled charade, GZ. Damn!

“Politico” itself was a cancer dropped into the World Wide Web in 2007, a huge MSM cancer disguised as an objective news organization that played nice with the right in order to consolidate power. Then, in 2008, Politico struck and revealed itself to be the most insidious weapon online against the right. It was a brilliant plan and it worked. The left did the same to blogs. Astro-turfed trolls were created in order to infest the comment sections of popular conservative blogs. These trolls disrupted and propagandized, all in an effort to ensure the American people weren’t allowed to converse en masse without their influence. Now, for exactly the same reasons, the left has set their sights on social media, and Ben Smith leading the charge makes perfect sense. I don’t know how successful he’ll be, but HuffPo’s co-founder sure hired the right guy. bigjournalism.com
