The Media is Ridiculous

Lest you have any doubts as to the ridiculous lack of trustworthiness of our mainstream media, look no further than their meltdown over what was actually an awesome analysis and reaction by Mitt Romney to the horrors of Libya and Egypt.

This is an effective opinion on the subject.
And another one.

And keep in mind one key fact when the media or Obama supporters try to criticize Romney on this: the Obama administration is now saying the same thing Romney did.  In other words, THEY AGREE HE GOT IT RIGHT. They're only complaint is that he said it first.  That's what has them hotter than mad hornets. ROMNEY GOT IT RIGHT, AND HE UNDERSTOOD WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID FIRST.  For me it's not even close.  Romney nailed this exactly.  And he had every right to say it as one of two men running for the top job.  Every right.

UPDATE: an excerpt from a related article here:

In an interview this week, the president of CBS News insisted his network isn't biased. We agree. When it comes to the current election campaign, calling the mainstream press biased doesn't go nearly far enough.

These days, the media aren't just tilting stories, they're acting like paid employees of the Obama campaign's PR shop.

Think about it. Over the past several months, there hasn't been one major political story line pushed by the mainstream press that hasn't been perfectly in sync with the Obama campaign's strategic messaging plan.

Case in point is the ferocious press response to Mitt Romney's criticism Tuesday night of the Cairo embassy's "disgraceful" apology. At midnight on Tuesday, the Obama campaign said it was "shocked" that "Romney would choose to launch a political attack."

Was Romney out of line? Hardly. The embassy's apology was disgraceful. Even the White House admitted as much — but only after Romney issued his stinging rebuke. As for politicizing an international crisis, Obama did so repeatedly in his 2008 campaign, including using the death of nine troops in Afghanistan to score political points.

Still, the mainstream press has flooded the zone with stories about how Romney was irresponsibly and ineptly politicizing a foreign policy crisis, and about the "withering criticism" — as the New York Times put it — that his statement generated. (Never mind that much of that criticism was coming from the press itself.)

Does anyone really believe it's a coincidence that this media frenzy just happened to advance a key line of attack by the Obama campaign against Romney?
