Bengazi - The Corporate Media Continues To Enable The Crazy Right!

Death panels, birthers, President Obama being a secret Muslim, climate change denialism, employment number manipulation, poll number manipulation, and now Republicans who are being lead by Darrell Issa and John McCain are entertaining while conspiracy theories about how President Obama used information of Patreaus's affair to hide the involvement of terrorists in the Bengazi attacks!

We really need to hold the corporate media accountable for the continued willingness to entertain and allow Republicans to push lies and create false scandals. Enough is enough. Folks in the media wonder why the public holds the media in such low self esteem. Because they forgot how to do journalism. Reporting the news takes more than putting people on television to see who can yell louder. We need to know the truth and hold Republicans accountable when they spread wild eyed conspiracies without a shred of evidence.

for got that the media is runned and owned by private enterprises. They have interests in seeing President Obama fail. The claim is all reporters or most of them are Liberal. I doubt they told anybody who they vote for. They are all in the one or top percent, especially the owners. We are talking about people like Ted Turner and Rupert Murdoch. I don't listen to pundits most of the time.
