    Rezko was sentenced to prison for a kickback scheme. The rest is an out-and-out blatant lie. People are sent to prison for committing crimes - not for who their acquaintances are. I'll just assume the rest of the piece is a lie, too, and not waste my time on it.

    It's embarrassing to watch Liberals in this thread. Most didn't read a very thorough O.P. The ones that did are trying to cherry pick small parts and ignore a mountain of evidence.

    Our national news media and specifically the broadcast networks: ABC, NBC, CBS have little credibility. They are shills for the Democratic Party and even when caught, they act like nothing happened. Their corrupt work not only lies in the bias of the stories they cover, but the decisions not to cover stories that are extremely important because they go against the news media's left wing ideology.

    Listen HB......I didn't read the OP completely because banning the mainstream media would be unconstitutional, and it's a ludicris idea.

    There is no amount of spin, "so called" evidence, opinion, hyperbole, or anything else that would lead me to believe the mainstream media, or any media in the US, should be banned.

    What you're talking about is the same kind of nanny stateism that you hate so much. You do realize that if you banned the mainstream media...the state would be the one that enforces the ban....right?

    It's not like I haven't ever created a stupid thread...so I'm not trrying to be a dick to you, but this one is just as bad as my "fire the red states" thread.

    It used to be a case of having to cherry pick the occasional glaring bias, and really make a concerted effort to prove the general bias. Now, it is blatant and daily. I always call it the purchased left media over the last few years because that is exactly what it is.

    Correct. The level of bias has went right over the top. I do like the example of the two congressmen from the same district one election cycle apart. I noticed no Liberals wanted to touch that one.

With your permission, I would like to see what the FCC has to say, as the descion will ultimatly go to them. What do you say?

    You are slow.... really slow.

    Let me post this for the 3rd time.

    Of course the networks aren't going to be banned. I took this step to get you Liberals to at least admit the what is an overwhelming bias by ABC, CBS, NBC.... but you donks have zero level of honesty and can't even go that far.

    At least I exposed it to the Independent mind how corrupt the left truly is in the media and on these boards.

    Do you know how to make a convincing lie? Don't make it so obvious. Don't make it the title, or post in the OP, and following posts the truth, then try to do a 180, and say you don't want them banned.

    "If we are going to have fair and honest elections the Broadcast media must be banned, replaced, and then brought back to the airwaves. I will make a rock solid case with links and full indisputable evidence to follow. But, first we must recognize the nature of the National Broadcast News Networks. This only includes: ABC, CBS, and NBC and only includes their news divisions which should be disbanded."


    The Public Airwaves are owned by, "We the people". But, they are instead being used as a propaganda tool for the Democrat"ic" Party. This abuse must stop''

    "The broadcast news has been a propaganda arm of the Democratic Party for a VERY long time. It's not right and it needs to stop. "

    Now you can fall back on the admission you made. But chances are that's a lie. You didn't do it to make people think, you did it to say the MSM is bias, and needs to be banned. If the admission was true, you would have mentioned that far sooner. And now, let's get back to the poit why I started posting again, though you didn't post back.

    Let the FCC decide, if the evidence you have gathered is enough. If it is, I'll admit I'm wrong, and let you have the thread. If I win, then you have to publicly state you were wrong, that MSM, doesn't have a liberal bias. Sounds fair enough?

    1. I'm not a liberal, I'm a left centrist.
    2. If you want it banned, you have to go to the FCC with a complaint. Isn't your op filled with facts? Surely they're enough to sway the FCC to your opinion. Don't you want me to publicly admit you were right?

    It actually isn't accurate to align it to the bias definition anymore. It is really defined as propaganda.

    Bias would be the small drift your vehicle has to the left. The purchased leftist media is directly steering, which proves an organized collective design, with intent and motive.

    The parallels of Goebbels propaganda techniques exist, inclusive of the how the populace (and more than a few forums members here) cling to their belief as to the reality of what they have be propagandized into.

    Germans lapped it up with blinded ignorance via the same methodology. As I said, a lot of parallels exist, just a longer trip taken with the vehicle.

    If you're going to try to be snide, at least try to be intelligent in the effort.

    The criticism of the mainstream media as biased aren't directed at the political pundits in the media, nor any show which announces and then defends a bias.

    It is directed at their news department, who are not supposed to display bias at all, particularly when they deny any bias.

    You cite Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Mike Huckabee. Fail on you: these three are political pundits who state that they are Conservative, and who appear on political shows.

    I thought conservatives were for free speech? This sounds a lot like the arguments we've been hearing from Muslims this week, that "some" speech shouldn't be tolerated.

    You can stop projecting your fantasy arguments on my post now. Nothing I said in my post references free speech. I was commenting on the difference between people who are supposed to be news reporters and people who are political pundits.

    Solely in terms of free speech, there is no difference

    So what?

    Public airwaves carry Limbaugh, Hannity, Glenn Beck, Fox 'News' and on and on. Want to get rid of them, too?

    I'd say the real danger to the US is the guy who ordered our people back to the 'safe' house away from the original plan to actually get them to safety aboard planes waiting for them. And the guy who somehow knew of the location of this last-minute change of plans and were set up their with heavy artillery waiting to kill them...

    Start there and blame the media later...

    Yes there is. Because there are free speech rights does not mean people are free to lie with no consequence.

    Your attempts to contort reason to defend the miscreants in the MSM is disgusting.

    You should catch up in the thread. There is a distinct difference between political pundits with avowed and declared allegiances, and news outlets, which are supposed to report events; not shape them or their interpretations.

    They have distinctly different burdens of responsibility.

    It is a well known fact that reality has a liberal bias.

    If you want better news coverage...stop being the party of lies.
