How the WaPo Covers Rallies

8,000-12,000 show up for an anti-war tantrum? A1, above the fold, and an "s" added to "thousand" to make it seem like there were really untold throngs in attendence. Lead item on every major network and local newscast in the nation all weekend long. Four pages of fawning coverage - every rant repeated, every slogan blared, a moonbat blathering nonsense about the 60's every other sentence.

Tens of thousands more pro-lifers show up on the previous weekend at the same location for an anti-abortion rally?

Page A-10
. Two pages. Move along, folks. Nothing to see here.

1 10,000 out of 250 million. A majority for sure.

2 More would have shown up but they haven't got their welfare checks yet so they can't afford to attend.

3 We complain about the media, but what can we do to counter it. I think Bush could have taken them on in 2005 and exposed some of their tricks, but it may be too late.
 
I keep hoping there is some strategy of waiting until the media goes collectively too far and letting them discredit themselves.
 
I'm less optimistic and now sense that Bush and company is resigned to just let the media control the narrative and outright lie like they did on the crowd totals for this sorry demonstration.
 
I'm so sick of this, I want a plan!

4 Thank God people can still band together and protest without being arrested and dragged off to court which is what these Tyrants are aiming for.

The MSM are not "biased", that's too soft a word.  It implies unintentional and subconscious.  They are agenda driven Democrats posing as journalists.  There's nothing you can do about it, just be aware of it and inform as many people as you can.  Expose these cockroaches to the light of day.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Tim: A lot more than your so called tyrants want them dragged off and interrogated.

Leftards are quite brilliant actually, because they intentionally try to get arrested, and they also get to call the people arresting them tyrants.   It's bulletproof.

9 Timbecile:


If the "tyrants" want those idiots arrested, why weren't they? Idiot.


Only lefties want to control speech. There are no consrvative speeck codes, shout-downs, pies in the face or "fairness" bills.
