This is what the liberal MSM is all about, but the only way to catch them is if they forget to hang up the phone properly.

Anchorage CBS Affiliate Caught on Voicemail Conspiring Against Alaska’s GOP Senate Candidate - Big Journalism

Quote:
The following is a transcript of a call recorded after CBS Alaska affiliate KTVA called Joe Miller’s Senate campaign spokesperson. The call failed to disconnect properly. It was later authenticated by McDermott, who sent a text to Randy DeSoto
Truly incredible.

I find if rather naive if you're astonished by this behaviour. Do you really find their conversation that incredible? Seems like nothing more than business as usual. I am certainly not defending this type of attitude amongst alleged journalists, but how is this different from any other news media?

Doesn't suprise me one bit. Just more fuel to the fire concerning CBS and their ilk in the industry. I think CBS needs to stick with sports reporting. On second thought, nevermind, they suck at that to.

How much more proof do people need that the media is biased and will do what they can to push a liberal agenda. This type of thing goes on daily, except we dont always get to hear the behind the scenes stuff.

The media is downright corrupt, what they do is near treasonous. They owe the American public fair reporting. They are suppose to inform the public of what goes on. They are suppose to be our Watch Dog. Yet they are complicit and facilitators in pushing through a liberal agenda and it's been clear for while they will do WHATEVER IT TAKES to tear down Conservatives and prop up Liberals.

What's sad is even with all the biased, the lies, the smears November 2nd still is going to be bad for Democrats. Now imagine if the media were fair. If the media were fair, the bloodbath would be even worse for the liberals. Much worse. Oh, to live in a perfect world where the media was not corrupt. I can only dream.

This is Joe Miller, who wants to abolish the minimum wage?

This actually sounds pretty benign. "According to a transcript posted by Miller’s campaign, a female employee, speaking about an upcoming Miller rally, said: “We know that out of all the people that will show up tonight, at least one of them will be a registered sex offender.”

“You have to find that one person,” a male reporter responded, with laughter audible in the background.

A campaign supporter? So what? Writing an article that says "X, convicted child molester, supports Joe Miller!" would just make the paper look stupid and desperate.

I don't think this is as nefarious as Sarah Palin would have you believe.

"The media." That would include the internet, sat.radio, television, printed media, etc. So, all of your sources of information are themselves 'mainstream'. And virtually every media is biased.Why is it always a liberal agenda you're (you in the general sense) complaining about? Which sources of media do you listen to and how are they not mainstream?

You just dont get it. Just move on. You dont care about corrupt media, because the corrupt media is largely on your side pushing YOUR agenda.

No, seriously, I don't. Please take the exchange apart for me and explain.
