A LOT of hate over there...for anyone not of the same mind on the issues.



On the fence about obama? Why, I thought he had the Jewish vote locked up.

Another story the MSM will try to sweep under the rug.

Breitbart.tv » Dershowitz: I Won’t Vote For Obama If Associated With ‘Stalinist Bigots’ Media Matters

Articles: Alan Dershowitz Says Media Matters Could Cost Obama the Election



There is NO WAY obama would ever denounce these far-left radicals at MM and Stink Progress...just no way.....they are his brothers in arms, they have the same ideology, the same views on so many issues.

And we know the WH is coordinating with them as well.

Too bad I can't rep you again. Of course, the whole media matters issue has been completely glossed over in the mainstream media. Why? Because it appears as though media matters essentially controls the flow of information to the leftist media.

Any rational, sane person should be shocked by this, which shows that the US media is nothing more than a leftist propaganda machine. However, the left is comforted by this, as they want nothing to do with factual information and free speech, only reinforcement of their warped world view.

I disagree with the way media matters has handled this, and I think it's going to hurt them big time as a group, but I'm baffled by how you're making this connection.
I think as more comes out it will be show how they are linked
the e mails that were released before came from some one who worked at the rag
I was around when Watergate came to light
It was wild
non stop news
everyone was glued to their TV
now I find it interesting that so many things this white house has been linked to
and most media outlets attack the messenger
if there is no link then I want to know that!
But if there is, I want to know that too!
It is sickening to me at this man who was going to change Washington, racial
problems, we were going to be not red and blue states, but the United states
hell, he was going to control the oceans!!
But we are worse on every level
and now rumors fly on this slime and people shout down instead of finding out!
what is sad is that even if true, folks will still vote for the hack!
That says more about them that the man leading them like sheep
I am so glad I can stay in reality and make a decision on what I have seen for myself!

Maybe you need to do a little research.

Media Matters | Sources | David Brock | The Daily Caller

Inside Media Matters: Sources, memos reveal erratic behavior, close coordination with White House and news organizations

Of course there is coordination/collusion between these leftist orgs and the dem party/WH.
I never said I had a problem with the topic--just that your take on it is wacky--even more wacky than what you usually come up with.

Yes...they will ignore the fact that MM and their ilk funnel stories to so-called journalists that originate from a collusion with and for the WH.

Well, this one's amusing. Media Matters is antiemetic, according to the fanatic Alan Dershowitz. Given his record, that basically means that they've come out against Isreal ethnically cleansing the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, ie. they have a basic sense of humanity.

I'm also amused that the right it up in arms against one of the more prominent websites that point out when conservative commentators are wrong, lying, or saying openly racist things. It's sort of like how that guy that runs Little Green Footballs has them all angry when he posted the appallingly racist comments that get posted on Fox News' website.

So you don't really know if he is correct or not, you are basing your opinion solely on "his record".

Really?

Well, they ignored it with Jeff Gannon, a Bush plant, so I guess it's appropriate here too.

Exactly how big do you think MM's reach is, Sanrene?

Many times, you will also find people who take any criticism of Israel as a direct attack upon Jews themselves. It's not, and I'd wager that a majority of Jewish people in the US make that distinction as well.

Desperate times call for desperate measure, eh Sanrene?

Even the Simon Wiesenthal Center is concerned about the anti-semitism coming from Media Matters.
Quote:
"When it comes to the charges of being 'Israel Firsters' and having 'dual loyalty,' we not only plead innocent but also counter-charge that these sponsored bloggers are guilty of dangerous political libels resonating with historic and toxic anti-Jewish prejudices," the center said in a statement issued today. "These odious charges have been around since Henry Ford in 1920 said 'wars are the Jews' harvest,' Charles Lindbergh in 1940 condemned Jews for conspiring to plunge America into World War II, and 'Jewish neocons' were charged with colluding with Israel to cause the 2003 Iraq War."
