Hiding Place
“The reality is that we didn’t try to hide from it,” he (President of NBC News Steve Capus) said. “We did an awful lot of work after it happened. We did an exhaustive investigation, I did interviews with a lot of publications to get the message out, but we probably should have done it on our own air.” Mr. Capus said that they were so busy cleaning up the mess “inside our own halls,” that they neglected to loop in the audience. In that sense, the process was probably too “self-reflective,” he added. (NYT, 4/22/2012)


Note to Mainstream Media: this is why we believe that you are dishonest. Here's the background. NBC News edits tape to make George Zimmerman appear biased. When they are exposed, an internal investigation is undertaken. But they never aired an apology (a.k.a. looped in the audience). The only conclusion that a logical man can make is that they were too...."self-reflective." You cannot make this stuff up. 


Flush the Fashion
Many critics view The Times as constitutionally unable to address the election in an unbiased fashion. Like a lot of America, it basked a bit in the warm glow of Mr. Obama’s election in 2008. (Arthur S. Brisbane, Public Editor, New York Times, 4/21/2012)


An astonishing admission from the Times. 


Skipping School
In 2007, then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama missed two votes on the student loan interest bill that he now wants Congress to extend. Obama twice skipped the Senate vote on the College Cost Reduction and Access Act when the bill came to the Senate floor first in July and again in September of 2007, according to public records.

Maybe Obama WILL be vetted this time!
