Watching this all at home were members of Journolist, a listserv comprised of several hundred liberal journalists, as well as like-minded professors and activists. The tough questioning from the ABC anchors left many of them outraged. “George [Stephanopoulos],” fumed Richard Kim of the Nation, is “being a disgusting little rat snake.”
Others went further. According to records obtained by The Daily Caller, at several points during the 2008 presidential campaign a group of liberal journalists took radical steps to protect their favored candidate. Employees of news organizations including Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Guardian, Salon and the New Republic participated in outpourings of anger over how Obama had been treated in the media, and in some cases plotted to fix the damage.
In one instance, Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent urged his colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Wright by changing the subject. Pick one of Obama’s conservative critics, Ackerman wrote, “Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”
Just three pages outlining the angst of 100's of reporters etc who were outraged, worked in concert, some even went on to work for the Obama administration, because they could see the dream of getting rid of BushHitler like Republicans with Obama the hopey changey feel good Messiah. Imagine that dream slipping away over a simple thing as worshiping under an "God damn America" hating, whitey hating pastor for 26 years, not gonna happen on their watch.
Heh....small potatoes.
Now repeat after me. Conspiracy theories of left wing media are ridiculous and make you look silly and hard to take seriously. Get it?
