Shirley Sherrod vs. Juan Williams. Outrage disparity much? |
|
So the right-wing media machine kicks in to high gear to defend the bigot, he had over 9 minutes on GMA this morning to give his "Bigot? Who me?" act a spin and it got me to thinking about Shirley Sherrod. Remember her? The Federal employee that was summarily fired for comments it turns out she didn't actually make. Strangely I don't remember her being given the same sort of free air-time to repudiate the blatant lies fashioned by Fuxx news contributor Brietbart when she got fired, but hey, it's not like the M$M is owned by republican-backing corporations or anything...
The media in this country make me ill.

Get a different metaphor. Let it make you determined to find a way to fight the bastards instead.

I tell everyone I meet we need to rip the stars off the flag and replace them with Corp. logos. They own the country. 'We The People' is bullshit.
Gone with the Fairness Doctrine, foreign ownership of our media, beholding to corp. sponsers. The Fourth Estate is dead.

6. All the right wind outlets fail to mention that this is the second |
|
time Williams has said or done something unappropriate. The first time he sexually harassed female employees.
