Alfonzo Rachel isn’t surprised that Mitt Romney got booed when he spoke to the NAACP in Houston, but what bugs Zo is how the mainstream media sensationalized the speech to foster racial division and to promote a liberal, big-government agenda. H/T PJTV’s ZoNation

Was Walter Cronkite really the most trusted man in America? Someone who could redirect the course of national policy simply by advancing a contradictory stance on his nightly CBS newscast? Both notions serve to pump up the egos of working journalists, but but neither is grounded in fact. Rather, they are self-flattering myths, or so says American University professor of communications Joseph Campbell in an interview with Reason.TV. Campbell is the author of Getting It Wrong: Ten of the Greatest Misreported Stories in American Journalism.

Conservative Canadian TV pundit Ezra Levant probes the pack mentality of the “Media Party,” the elite liberal journalists who control most of the country’s largest media outlets, operating to squelch dissent and enforce doctrinaire opinion, much like the clique of bullies from the Winona Ryder movie Heathers. The catalyst for Levant’s analysis: The announcement by one of these scribes that he would be leaving Canada behind to take up residence in Cuba. H/T Blazing Cat Fur

If anyone doubts the bias of MSNBC, simply observe how the network has used completely deceptive editing to engage in some shameless spinning of the truth designed to present Mitt Romney in an unfavorable light. In the first video below, MSNBC offers its truncated version of a Romney speech in Pennsylvania, using his own words to condemn him as an out-of-touch Richie Rich, amazed by a touch-screen system he encounters at a Wawa convenience store. The implication: He’s far removed from the Average Joe and doesn’t get out shopping much.
But contrast that version with the second video, filmed by a Ron Paul follower in the crowd, and offering Romney’s full, uncut words. Here, we can see that Romney wasn’t shocked at all by the Wawa innovation, but simply disappointed that the federal government hasn’t emulated customer-oriented businesses like Wawa in the private sector. The moral: MSNBC might preen like a peacock, but it sure looks more like a dirty bird, with its tail feathers clipped. H/T SooperMexican

Conservative pundit Ezra Levant goes on the warpath, vowing to spearhead a campaign to abolish the hypocritical Canadian Broadcast Standards Council. The council, in a clearcut conflict of interest, allows journalists from rival broadcasters to not only file standards violations charges against their competitors, but also to sit in final judgment on whether any ethical infractions have occurred. Needless to say, the targets of complaints are usually conservatives, while the council turns a blind eye to comparable punditry by liberals, and in a truly bizarre and offensive example cited here, tolerates a most egregious case of hate speech voiced by a bigoted imam. In the face of these kinds of double standards, the council, which is little more than a censorship board, ought to be abolished. Chinga tu madre, indeed.

The White House press corps goes beserk when Neil Munro of The Daily Caller dares ask President Obama a tough question about his election-year decision reversing the nation’s long-standing immigration policies. Meanwhile, the braying moonbats at MSNBC greet challenger Romney’s kick-off of a six-state bus tour with a pornographic DEATH WISH montage. The one saving grace in all of this: The more the media come to resemble Larry Flynt, the less they can pretend to be carrying forward the grand traditions of Edward R. Murrow. Their credibility with the public is at an all-time low, and they have themselves to blame for their precipitous downfall and disgrace.
