A recent study, "Good News = Less News on Iraq War," by Media Research Center, NB's parent organization, revealed that coverage of Iraq by the big three evening newscasts has declined as the news from Iraq has improved. Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace highlighted the MRC study during his interview of General David Petraeus, Commanding General, Multi-National Force - Iraq .
CHRIS WALLACE: It seemed to us that you hadn't been in the news much recently, which probably is a good thing from your point of view, since you came back from Washington in September. But we decided to check it out, and the Media Research Center says that the three network evening newscasts did 178 stories on Iraq in September, when you were here, that in October as the surge took hold there were 108 stories, and that in November that dropped to just 68. General, any thoughts about why success in Iraq isn't news here at home?
- THE MSM REPORTS NEWS ONLY IF IT HELPS THE LEFT: GORE WINNING A NOBEL; HEAT WAVES; BAD DAYS IN THE STOCK MARKETS; OIL GOING UP BUT NOT DOWN, ETC.
- THEIR IDEOLOGICAL AGENDA TRUMPS HONEST REPORTING EVERY TIME.
- THIS AIDS AND ABETS THE ENEMY - AS IT DEMORALIZES US AS IT ATTEMPTS TO DEFEAT THE CONSERVATIVE, PATRIOTIC, LIBERTARIAN TRADITIONALISTS AND REPLACE THEM WITH GRAMSCIAN LEFTISTS.
- THAT'S WHY, TO DEFEAT THE JIHADISTS, WE MUST FIRST DEFEAT THE LEFT.
AND TO DEFEAT THE LEFT WE MUST DEMOLISH THE MSM.
Anybody whom I personally know who's trying to find out the real news is already on the web searching for the truth.
ReplyDeleteBut how can we convince others, who would swing right if only they knew what's been going on?
reaching them is the KEY and i wish i knew how we could get them to tune out the AM news and the PM news and TIME/NEWSWEEK and tune into
ReplyDeleteblogs.
they like to be spoon fed and the bgsphr is roll your own.
"Relentless, destructive critique of MSM persons and publications is among the most important tasks of bloggers, commenters, and tipsters of the Right."
ReplyDeleteKill the messenger. Destroy their credibility. Expose their bias. Provide their readers and viewers with better content from other sources. Steal eyes and advertisers away from them. Cost them money.
