Monkeys and media: The origin of specious

By Kent Jones



Just two blocks from TRMS HQ in midtown Manhattan, one can admire this impressive array of billboards at Seventh Avenue and 48th Street. "It's time the Liberal Media Stop Censoring the News!" we are told, and to drive the message home, there are three "see no evil," "hear no evil," "speak no evil" monkeys representing "liberal" media villains ABC and CBS and NBC. (Moral? Never trust a monkey without pants.) StopCensoringtheNews informs us:

“There's no question that the liberal media did everything they could to get Barack Obama reelected last year. We should all be disturbed by this fact. But particularly disturbing are the media's attempts to censor news they thought might embarrass Obama or slow down the Left's radical agenda.”

“The Media Research Center has documented numerous cases of the media suppressing stories like ‘Fast and Furious,’ Solyndra, Benghazi, and others...stories that would have been major news if there had been a conservative in the White House. It's time the American people stand against this lack of integrity and blatant abuse of power by the national media.”

If this latest First Amendment broadside seems like something cooked up by the conservative gadflies at News Busters and Brent Bozell at the Media Research Center, well spotted. Said Mr. Bozell.

“These billboards – located in the hub of the liberal media's nerve center – put them on notice. The American people are sick and tired of the establishment media’s collusion with the Obama administration, and won’t stand for a corrupt press willing to censor the news.”

3. Freedumb is On the March!

4. Their projection is weak and laughable and everyone knows it.

You mean like that time the NYTs suppressed information that could have changed the outcome of the 2004 elections? Everyone knows there is no liberal media...just corporate media that covers up the crimes of Wall Street.

5. Anything to the left of Faux is the "librul media" and not to be trusted.

And some times they aren't any too sure about Faux.

It must really hurt to be that mouth breathing stupid.

6. Somehow I knew it was Brent Bozo's org before I scrolled down to the text

I've seen them ship in people for a rent-a-protest before.

I love the laugh line:

These billboards – located in the hub of the liberal media's nerve center – put them on notice.

Yep, a bunch of ranting signage puts them "on notice". In Manhattan. Among all the other signage, including the one for mattress protectors. As if they themselves have never put up billboards before.

7. I worked there -nobody looks at that shit

its all the same visual pollution after a week so let the turd maggots waste their money .

[woo me with science]

8. They are lied to, as we are lied to.

How convenient to own both parties, and to have the country so well-divided and propagandized...

[ProSense]

9. Are you defending Brent Bozell? n/t

[woo me with science]

11. Reading comprehension is your friend, ProSense.

Obviously I'm not defending Brent Bozell. Did you miss the part where I wrote that it's a total lie?

Try to follow along here...

10. No one in NYC is going to buy that garbage. nt

[Sheepshank]

12. This is so much like those RW Fundie posters/fliers......

where every other line is in CAPS, Bolded, in varying fonts, font sizes and colors.

The message is lost the re-confirmation of whacky presentation than seems to mirror their credibility.

But maybe that's just me.
