MSNBC shows Unprecendented Media Bias For Obama, & against Palin
Saturday, August 30th, 2008On Friday August 29th 2008, the same day that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s historical nomination as the first female Vice Presidential Nominee was announced, MSNBC began running childish attacks on Palin like the one Bill O’Reilly point’s out in the video below. (They aired a “breaking news” type banner that said: “How many houses does Sarah Palin add to the Republican ticket.”) That was unfortunately just the beginning. They are trying to smear her & John McCain here as well, & trying to belittle her experience by incessantly calling her a “former beauty queen”, instead of stating the truth, which is that she’s a former Mayor, & now the Governor of the biggest land mass, & energy rich state in the Union. Those are both “executive positions”, neither of which Obama or Biden ever held. Here’s a patently & intentionally sexist quote from this story on Newsweek/MSNBC.com
Who is Sarah Palin?
From beauty queen to vice-presidential candidate. A look at the life and career of John McCain’s historic choice for a running mate.
That is of course a flat out LIE. She had tremendous accomplishments between the years she was in a beauty pageant back in college, & today as the first female Vice Presidential candidate.
Meanwhile Newsweek’s current issue has Joe Biden & Barack Obama smiling angelically on the front cover of the current issue of the Newsweek magazine. It’s the moist extreme case of media bias I & many others have ever seen in our lives.

So this is what some people who call themselves news reporters have lowered themselves to? Well it’s no surprise to me to look up the ratings for these news outlets to find that MSNBC is getting absolutely hammered by Fox News, & the CNN respectively, & I do mean HAMMERED in months that were NOT the during Democratic convention. See example: & the ratings below..
Even this month with all your liberal viewership watching the Democratic “Super Bowl like halftime show” of a convention & giving you a prime time lead, you still couldn’t even squeak past Fox News in total views!
Great job MSNBC! Keep up the biased propaganda, it seems to be doing wonders for your ratings!

On a side note, Sarah is up against this guy. This is a great comedy video,(below) Featuring the memorable lines:“The Only Reason I’m Senator” & “Bob Casey was twelve years older than me, and Bobby Casey was twelve years younger than me. And I knew somebody famous was going to come out of Scranton, and I sure a’ hell knew it wadn’t gonna be me.”.. The only problem with the last statement is that Biden left Scranton at the age of ten.. This is going to be easier than I though once they unleash the Barracuda on him.
Sidenote: I’m not trying to be unfair here, but Biden really does seem drunk in this video. I’m far from the first person to make that observation, but judge for yourselves.
