I have called WRAL and they said they are not going to be covering the Acorn video releases? Why? Why is Fox the only ones covering the news? I think we should all ask why this stuff is not being covered. Could this be going on in our local offices?
Helping people set up prostitution.....
Certainly not meaning to speak for the site, but WRAL - a Raleigh station - failing to cover an issue which is making headlines nationally is a legit and logical topic for this forum, FYI.
I would just hope that any discussion of this can stay civil and not digress to personal attacks. Hey I can dream.....
As to "why," probably because they are liberally biased. Attacking ACORN would be almost like attacking the ACLU or NAACP. God forbid!
I figured I'd comment here again since I just watched the national news and saw no coverage of it. Now I would agree that it's because it was an issue that would get certain groups up in arms that no one wants to offend for some reason.
they make a politics forum if you'd like to argue with people
Agreed, this is NOT a politics forum and there are obviously more important things for them to cover if it did not make the local news (it did make the national news btw).
Yes, I guess your right but they "local's" will cover things else where. Even on the website they have a "nation section" that covers things from everywhere else. I would have thought that it would have alteast made their website. And I know if it's to liberal it won't be covered as not to affend anyone?. But this would be a good story for news would it not? I mean it has what everything news wants..illegal prostitution from girls under age, drugs, pimps, and who knows what else that goes with it and even tax advice from Acorn! I would have thought with this being the 3rd video that has been released it would have made someone notice it the slightest little bit to have a blurb about it.
If your local news stations aren't covering this, that's because it's not local news. And if it's not local news, then it doesn't belong on this forum. As Gucci mentioned, there is a whole forum devoted to Politics & Other Controversies, where you're more than welcome to discuss the story.
