Media Bias

What Stacie Laughton Wants People to See is That She is Just Like Everyone Else.

On June 8th 2012, the Nashua Telegraph did a community piece on then candidate for the New Hampshire House Stacie Laughton.  It opened like this.

NASHUA – What Stacie Laughton wants people to see is that she is just like everyone else.

This theme was repeated throughout the article, but nowhere in the Nashua Telegraph’s reporting, or in any Telegraph content after it that I could find (until a few days ago), is there any mention of her extensive criminal history.  Laughton has previously been charged with felony misuse of 911 services, conspiracy to commit credit card fraud, conspiracy identity fraud, theft of services, misdemeanor criminal mischief, and served a suspended sentence for at least one felony conviction.

Would you be surprised to hear that she was elected to the New Hampshire House in Nashua, New Hampshire anyway?

The Mainstream Media….

Mainstream media lies....

A Harley biker rode by the zoo in Washington, DC and saw a little girl leaning into the lion’s cage. Suddenly, the lion grabbed her by her jacket and tried to pull her inside as her parents screamed. The biker jumped off his Harley, ran to the cage and punched the lion on his sensitive nose. Whimpering from pain the lion let go of the girl. The biker took the girl back to her terrified parents. A reporter saw the whole thing and says to the biker, “This was the bravest thing I’ve seen in my life. I’m a journalist, and tomorrow’s paper will have this story on the front page. What do you do for a living and what’s your political party?” The biker replies “I’m a U.S. Marine and a Republican.” The next day’s Washington Post headline:

If Sea Ice Grew and No One Was There to ‘Report’ It, Did It Really Happen?

antarctic sea ice reaches 33 year high in 2012 and climbingForbes has a story about the Antarctic.  It’s that other frozen wasteland, the one you never hear much about.   You don’t hear anything about it because for the past 33 years the amount of sea-ice in the antarctic has apparently been growing, and as of this week–due to record cold temperatures in the region–has reached its highest reading ever.

That means there is more sea-ice in the antarctic than at any time since we started recording it.

The real story, of course, is the fact that when Forbes searched Google News for any sign of the story it was nowhere to be found.

A historical record.  More Antarctic sea ice than ever seen in recorded history.  And the Chicken-Little Media isn’t reporting it…

This lady is p*ssed off!

And I don’t blame her. Does the mainstream media suck? You betcha!

Obama Dumber Than Dan Quayle

Tim posted this on media bias, but there are parts too good to leave to the chance that you’ll follow the link to IBD (which you should.) It wasn’t like he (Quayle) repeated the mistake in all 57 states, or more precisely in Beaverton, Ore., in May 2008; or while traveling on the “Intercontinental” railroad … Read more

Ask A NH Democrat…About Racism

I bet you a majority of the Democrats in New Hampshire watch MSNBC.  So the next time you see one ask them if this is racist? In lieu of airing speeches from former Democratic Rep. Artur Davis, a black American; Mia Love, a black candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from Utah; and Texas senatorial hopeful … Read more

And the Kool-Aid Drinking Gun Control Crowd Continues To Pile it On

“Anyone with a gun can go out and commit an act of terrorism, even without a political affiliation.” —Aaron McGruder

James Holmes entered a movie theater and started “throwing shots,” injuring fifty-eight people and killing twelve others.  I need not give a full narrative of the tragedy, given the ongoing coverage on television, radio, internet and print media.

In the aftermath of this tragedy, the usual crowd quickly stepped up to politicize the event, calling for stricter measures on firearms ownership. The same old reliable liberal crows now grandstanding and blustering in the congressional well. Leading the charge is none other than NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

Romney’s Tax Records And The Idiot Cabral

“Is being an idiot like being high all the time?”  —Janeane Garofalo

MSNBC‘s Michael O’Brien asserts, “Most Americans say Mitt Romney should release more of his tax returns,” citing a USA Today/Gallup Poll. So how many Americans is “most Americans?” According to the poll, 54%. Certainly, that is 4% more than half. But curiously, the margin of error citing in the poll is +/-5 percentage points, based on a national survey of 539 adults. Also in this poll, Forty-seven percent call the issue of releasing tax returns in general, “largely irrelevant...”

CNBC? Yeah..[insert yawn here] more of the same blather. CNBC adds this little morsel of info:

Its An Obama Eat Dog World Out There

Its a ‘Eat dog’ world out there! Pass the sauce, Barry…” —Rick Olson, Granite Grok, just making stuff up for lack of a salient Quote.

So the brouhaha all started over some years ago when Mittens strapped his dog Seamus’ kennel to the top of the family people transporter for a 12-hour drive. Okay…on the face of it, it seems not only bizarre, but a little tough to take. But being a hunter who makes uses of hunting dogs, I fail to see where this gets political feet. Yeah the animal rights crybabies are having a tough time with it….after all, talking animal movies, dogs with sunglasses and other such stupid nonsense has relegated us to a culture where animals are personified. How many of those idiotic paintings have we seen of dogs playing poker?  But seriously? How is this different from the traditional Hunting dog boxes?

Democrat Support for Obama Waning?

Way back when anyone cared, if at all, Burger King used to run commercials in which people at Burger King would look into the camera and say they like the Whopper better than the Big Mac.  To anyone paying attention to the “small print” it became clear what the context was.  People who go to … Read more

BLESS those Concord truth-tellers! Media stupidity/bias in NH on display!

Here's where to get the truth about happenings in New Hampshire's state government

New Hampshire Liberal Media Bias in Action

(We conservatives and libertarians have long known that the “lamestream media” has a statist, leftward bent. Reasons? Collective “groupthink,” a need to please-and-entertain, government-dependent (and therefore Democrat-oriented) urban readerships, journalism schools peddling and enforcing statist propaganda…they all share blame for the lies. And it always seems to appear most obviously where they claim “neutrality”. Ohhhh yeah….like CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, the Washington Post. “Neutral.” Filled with lies, of course. And it happens right here in New Hampshire, where you’d they know better (our population is far more politically astute than most, and thus it’s harder to get by with “story-telling” masquerading as fact). Two articles from two newspapers today illustrate the problem….)

Newt Gingrich:

THIS is yet another reason I voted for him, and hope he wins the GOP nomination.

Progressive Veterans Group Goes after NH House Rep

…why doesn’t Tom Fahey and the Union Leader clarify the groups left wing ties, it’s Democrat connections, and support for Democrat candidates. And why does Fahey, the paper’s State House Bureau Chief, only refer to Robinson as a “spokesman for the Group” and a “Carroll County Resident,” without ever letting his reader know that Robinson is also the Conway Town Democrat Party Chairman, and has an axe to grind?

Republikinz-R -Stoopid?

Michelle Malkin discusses the lefts age old narrative about Republicans being dumb, and the recent attacks on Rick Perry. The obvious comparison, and she says it herself, “Dumb compared to who?” Great point. We’ve got more University economic egg-heads roaming the White House than you can shake a ruler at and yet they have to the last come up with nothing but a series of failed polices that have a) failed to meet any of their own genius exclamations and expectations and b) made things worse. It’s fun all the way through so take six minutes out of your morning and watch Malkin work.

Al Gore, Man-Bear-Pig And Global Warming

“America, how can I write a holy litany in your silly mood?” ~Allen Ginsberg “They pay pseudo-scientists to pretend to be scientists to put out the message: ‘This climate thing, it’s nonsense. Man-made CO2 doesn’t trap heat. It may be volcanoes.’ Bullshit! ‘It may be sun spots.’ Bullshit! ‘It’s not getting warmer.’ Bullshit!” “When you … Read more

Lamestream Media Lies:

Wow. Even college professors are having a hard time ignoring it….

The lamestream media makes a fool of itself again over Palin

Remember all the media jeering about how Sarah Palin said she could see Russia from her doorstep? She didn’t. What she DID say was you can see mainland Russia from Alaska…which you can, from one of the Aleutian Islands. Media stupid and wrong; Palin, smart and right.

How about the media jeering about how Palin referred to "the Boston Tea Party in 1773"? The ignoramuses in the media thought it happened in 1776! Media, stupid and wrong; Palin, smart and right.

Here’s another good one:
