Media Makes the Transition to Advoacay : Blinded by The Light

Well done article by David Limbaugh. The worst part about how Mr Obama got elected and reelected is that it seems a majority of the population are ready and willing to give up personal freedom for a supposedly secure and dependent life. Is this due to just bad times or is it the new normal as orchestrated by the progressive left. 

Remember, Mr Obama promised all these wonderful things for everyone, but as we all know just about everything he has promised has not come true, other then adding huge amounts to the national debt, a failed economy and a foreign policy of retreat.

What great reasons to vote for more of the same, right. Why would anyone actually vote for decline and despair.

Even worse maybe, when the public gradually becomes awake of how bad things have actually gotten, what will their collective reaction be? Who will they turn on? Who will they blame? 

Doctored Videotapes are Peanuts

Many have rightly condemned MSNBC's serpentine editing of a video to make it appear that certain gun rights activists heckled the father of a 6-year-old victim of the Sandy Hook shooting massacre, but let's not pretend this was a one-off event.

The liberal media long ago forfeited their respected role as watchdog over the government and have voluntary descended to the status of a public relations arm of the Democratic Party and various liberal causes.

It doesn't do it justice to call them cheerleaders, for they are active participants, every bit as much involved in bringing about the events as the party with which they collude.

They no longer merely report the news. They deliberately influence it to advance the liberal political agenda. So while they engage in plenty of deceptions on the micro level, they daily engage in a category of sin that far exceeds the despicable doctoring of videos.

For what they're about is grand deception on a macro scale. They aren't watchdogs, and they aren't just cheerleaders. Cheerleaders wear uniforms and are readily recognizable. These progressive media mavens are cloaked in a disguise of pseudo-neutrality and pseudo-objectivity, such that when they root for the political team that is assaulting America's founding principles and driving us headfirst into national ruin, many in their unwitting audience have no earthly idea they've got skin in the game.

The liberal media's fraud is so pervasive that by presenting the news through a distorted, progressive prism, they've created an alternate reality that bears little relationship to actual reality. What has emerged is a new normal, foisted on us by a cluster of malicious manipulators who long ago abandoned their honor and their professional calling.

This manufactured pseudo-universe is what allowed President Barack Obama to win re-election despite presiding over (and largely causing) the longest period of high unemployment since World War II and the worst recovery in 50 years. It's what enables him to enjoy a 60 percent approval rating despite being conspicuously radical, hyper-partisan, consciously divisive and dogmatically uncompromising.
