KLEEFISCH: PIN THE BLAME ON THE "OPERATIVE"

By Charlie Sykes

Our web reporter, Rebecca Kleefisch dissects a breathless television station's "expose" of those townhall hooligans.

 

**

Bonus: MSNBC carefully edits the footage to play the race card.

(In case you didn't know, the guy in the MSNBC video with the guns.... is black, a fact the MSNBC talking heads carefully avoid mentioning.)

i was going to comment that no Liberal could even try to defend these examples of bias in the media, but suddenly Snowflake shows up to throw in his 2 cents worth of obscenity at another commentator, and so now I can't say the LIBS are sensible enough not to try to defend this stuff... thanks, Snowflake

Rebecca, c'mon, you don't really expect that any woman stupid enough to carry a fetus to full term would have any serious questions for Dr. Kagen, do you?

I rip Sykes whenever I can. Clayfish has nothing to do with that. I'm just making a prediction, dickhead.

What makes Olbermann and Maddow even more dislikeable is the absolute SMUG fu** look on their faces as they report lie after lie gleefully. Makes you want to knock all their pretty little teeth out.

I wonder if those three NBC commentators were told that the fellow packing the heat was a black man. I'll bet all they got to see was the same edited stuff that was shown. How else could they keep a straight face when warning about how racism was going to result in an assassination attempt? That poor fellow in the center really looked silly when you knew the full facts. He also looks too young to have the pull in the newsroom to demand that heads roll for this deception. But they oughta!

Ok, they completely mislead the public to believe that it is a white guy who is packing the weapon and it is because of race. Liberal idiots - get this through your head - we don't care what color he is - your POTUS's policies will change this country for the worse possibly forever!!

The MSNBC commentator misidentifies "Mark Hinckley" as the attempted assassin of President Ronald Reagan. The assassin's name is "John" Hinckley, Jr.

The Jounal Co. owns NBC 26 and is basically useless here in Green Bay. Nothing like I remember WTMJ TV 4 when I lived in Milwaukee. I really wish they would send somebody up here that knows what they're doing. NBC 26 is run much like a tabloid rag sheet.

That "operative" must have been planning years ahead, to have that baby ready to go to us as a "prop". Is that all the media has left? weak sauce.

Thanks, Rebecca. You're one of the few conservatives that have come to my defense on this. I finally wrote my own defense, detailing the coverage and the irresponsible, agenda-driven "journalism" of this clown. It's posted at http://partyofknow.org/heatherthemommy/.

Oh that's what's her butt from Milwaukee! msnbc has absolutely NO credibility as a so-called news source. But the are very good at playing the race card when they want to. But in their obvious bias they only decided to play the part of the RC that suited them since the guy exercising his rights was black.

Why is it that anyone who criticizes President Obama is labeled a "racist"? Why are the liberal media's talking heads the only ones to keep bringing up race? Wasn't it the liberal media who called Condoleeza Rice an "Aunt Jemima"? Or called Colin Powell an "Uncle Tom"(that is before he jumped shit to the Obama camp now he's cool again) for being in the Bush Cabinet? When are people going to wake up and realize that the only "Racists" are in the liberal media?

Did the reporter from NBC26 investigate every person's LinkedIn and Facebook pages that attended that session or just the ones that asked "certain" questions?

The bias is stunning. I had viewed the same footage on other media outlets and noted the man with the automatic rifle was indeed black. MSNBC made a real effort to edit the video to fit their template of the story. A real example on the media seeking racism where it doesn't exist. The story is not racism rather an ultra liberal President attempting to reshape the country to reflect his personal view of what it should be.

This type of hack reporting is why NBC26 is regularly in the basement for ratings.

You will notice that MSNBC does not show the face of the black gun-carrier, only his back where the gun is hanging. With all other protester the camera pans up and down from the holstered gun to the person's face.
