/p> p> MSM MACHINATIONS br> Re: Matthew Vadum’s Financial Affirmative Action : /p>

Mr. Vadum overlooks two important factors in being able to place the blame on these absurd leftist organizations.

1. The MSM will write most of the articles that appear in publications, reports that are seen on TV or heard on radio. Their ability to distort, manipulate, twist and corrupt these articles and reports will convince many of the un/under-educated on the true facts will enable them to place the blame NOT where it belongs, but upon President Bush, his Administration and Republicans/Conservatives in general.

2. The demagogues that they are protected from the truth by the MSM and can thus use the same techniques as the MSM and also place the blame, dishonestly, upon President Bush and his administration and on Republicans and Conservatives in general.

3. Articles, such as this one (Financial Affirmative Action) are seen and read primarily by those who know the truth and know how the DNC and the MSM corrupt the process in creating the financial crisis and then placing the blame upon those who fought to bring order to a chaotic system. As the MSM controls the majority of publications and other news outlets, such articles as these are either refused a forum outside the Conservative market or are relegated to the back pages of publications, a few moments of air time and attacked from every front with bogus, misleading and irresponsible challenges.

4. Schools of journalism will provide the DNC and MSM with yet another layer of protection. When brought to the attention of other students by the few Conservatives who manage to gain entrance to these institutions of higher learning (but corrupt from top to bottom), both the article and the student will face untold amounts of ridicule and harassment. Daring to question the leftist agenda with “right wing propaganda” (as the truth is called) can lead to a student losing his/her scholarship, failing classes (even those with no relationship to “journalism”), etc.

p>5. Those of the left will stop at nothing to ensure their agenda and their view of reality need not be challenged, only accepted as gospel? We can see this today where “agents” of The Anointed One are threatening TV stations with having their broadcast license revoked for running anti-Obama ads and demanding DOJ investigations of groups who sponsor such ads. If The Anointed One will dare to make such threats before he is elected, what on earth will he do if he were to occupy the Oval Office? Can you imagine the MSM outrage if such were to come out of the McCain campaign? br> — Kenneth C. Harrell
