Teardown: The Mainstream Media Turns On Bush

Posted on Thursday, October 12 at 09:02 by Anonymous
Documented lies about weapons of mass destruction, disaster after disaster in Iraq, the starvation of Americans for days in New Orleans through gross negligence, to name a few unreported stories: none of that mattered to the corporate media. Bush was tolerated and lifted up merely by the press ignoring or failing to sustain any real attention to these or other tragedies laid at the feet of the American people by an administration that many call the worst ever in our history. Now, six years into the Bush regime we see a sudden reversal by the press. The networks and major daily papers are locked on to a huge scandal and they won’t give up. BOMBSHELL The initial bombshell came from ABC’s Brian Ross. An intelligent and intrepid reporter, Ross uncovered the Foley emails to underage Congressional Pages. What could be more damaging?

    Excellent post. Fascinating that Bush may go down through yet an other somescreen that would divert attention from ***real*** screuups from that government. I am not using the scr... word candidly.

    Déjà-vu. So hard not to be so cynical on everything we hear and read...

    "What’s with the mainstream (corporate) media?"
    Being cynical by nature I will hazard a guess-
    Corporate media is doing the exact job it is meant to do!
    Bush is on his way out so what better time for the press to make him the goat?
    There is a presidental election to gear up for so trop out all and focus on the ins of the current 'leader' while a champaign is being mounted for the newest crook to TAKE office
