http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,156591,00.html Sure seems like the news media is against our policy overseas no matter what. Why don't they just side with our enemies? Whats the difference? The news media no days has no problems reporting rumors to be true when it comes to the news. Memogate and know this! :dis:
Now for the real reason. FT wasn't far off but here it is..... Money... Sensationalism sells. Contreversey sells. Discord sells. The liberal viewpoint is tailor made to sow the seeds of discourse. The media simply uses this to rake in some dollars. Think about it, why do most people buy a newspaper these days? It's a self sustaining cycle, they print the bad stuff and it props up the liberal view on high ground, in return the liberals support the media with nice tidy green money. Pays for advertisments. The Liberal view point is in direct opposition to nation building and if the media takes this approach they cater to those constituents that support them monetaryily. They do it for money. While conservatives do have money, there is nothing "sensational" to print if their point of view is maintained in a publication. No "shock" value so to speak. They want that, it sells. Kind of like the rubber necks do when they pass a wreck on the interstate. the police would like for you to move along and not stop and gawk, while the ordinary Joe, will want to see just who got bloody. Human nature. The media is just exploiting that. The days of integrity in Journalism are long gone, the dollar took over. :shock:
How about another reason, just maybe some reporters and organizations believe they are citizens of the world not just the US. I vaguely remember that some reporters wouldn't wear pins on their shirts with American Flags after 9/11 because they didn't want to offend the world. They wanted to be more neutral and objective. I wonder if they felt the same way if we were under attack by China? What about these other Liberal idiots that doesn't want recruiters on public school campuses across the country. Would they change their mind if their existance was threatened from someone, an enemy abroad?
