Big industrial sized pot of STFU goes to…

posted in Cup of STFU, MSM |

Cup of STFUThe main stream media and all those who think that they aren’t biased. This article here won’t get much press, of course you cant’ expect an article that shows their bias to last long out there now can you?

 

Journalists dole out cash to politicians (quietly)

News organizations diverge on handling of political activism by staff

Now that’s not entirely surprising, but what is concerning is the 9-1 ratio for donations among reporters to Democrats versus Republicans. Sure they can support who they want, but shouldn’t they disclose who they support when writing articles? Especially political articles?

MSNBC.com identified 144 journalists who made political contributions from 2004 through the start of the 2008 campaign, according to the public records of the Federal Election Commission. Most of the newsroom checkbooks leaned to the left: 125 journalists gave to Democrats and liberal causes. Only 17 gave to Republicans. Two gave to both parties.

I’m for one shocked. Simply shocked, that MSNBC actually reported this, perhaps it’s their way of saying they aren’t biased. What’s ironic here is that the paragon of media monitoring, the site devoted to rooting out bias in all things media….Media Matters.org isn’t reporting on this at all. Of course that’s to be expected since it’s a George Soros funded group that just likes to bash Fox.

Any real conservative or even someone who actively watches the MSM will realize it’s bias, all you have to do is look at the same story from different sources to see what gets changed or to see what parts get more emphasis then others.It’s an interesting piece, to see the list of reporters contributing to political parties/orgs look here. The Jawa Report has more on it here.
