The Media - and the Tea Party non-coverage
I wonder what page the historic Boston Tea Party would have been on?...
In the Philadelphia Bulletin, Herb Denenberg writes:
"The moral of the story is that you can’t trust the mainstream media, and if you do, you’re likely to get a false impression of the world. You may want to read The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer, for example, but don’t rely on them (unless you just read the sports pages). You also can assume as biased as their coverage is, it continues to get worse. If you rely on the mainstream media you’re getting something that is closer to propaganda and fiction than to news. Just as the Obama administration is out of control, so is the mainstream media."
