what was he thinking offering a ready-made point of rebuke? when you are pulling an angry rant out of your ass to fill morning air time, never ever give specific comparables which can easily be googled and used against you.

Perfectly proven wrong with verifiable information....Fox News response is that because you proved me wrong proves that you have a liberal agenda.

/stick to the some people say or cite an unverifyable source Joe.

The "liberal media bias" is a defense for everything.

I was standing at a bus stop and some guy was there presumably for a while. He looked agitated and was holding some worn and torn pamphlet. Finally he spoke.
"This bus was supposed to be here by now." He pointed at some detail on the old pamphlet. I instantly noticed that the bus schedule was from 1992.
"I don't that bus schedule is accurate anymore." I piped up.
"God damned liberal media!" he shouted, throwing down the old schedule. He was on his way to a Romney convention.

When morons complain about MSNBC's 'left-wing bias,' be sure to point out that Joe Scarborough, former GOP congressman, is hosted by the network and blathers idiotically for three hours every morning.

The NYT daily Romney scandal is a perfect example of lefty hackery.

It's fun watching some try to defend it. Tell us some more about Mrs. Romney's expensive horses now, or maybe you know how much they spent on dinner yesterday.

I'm sure their whiny liberal neighbor has an opinion you can quote.

MSNBC = Leftist propaganda routed in hyperbole that attempts to appeal to logic.
Fox News= Rightist propaganda routed in hyperbole that relies on fallacies.

/Both are equally effective, but guess which one is more entertaining.

To be fair, Romney's record is littered with the liberal agenda.

I saw this on Stewart and it was great. I can't recall who the guy at the table was but he literally searched the info about Kerry up moments after Joe says they never printed things like this in 2004. Even better was the article about Romney was in the Home section on some off page, five months before the election. The article about Kerry was on front page center, four weeks before the election. It was priceless!

From an article linked in the story:

ON Dunemere Drive, it seems as if just about everyone has a gripe against the owners of No. 311.

311? 311?? Three eleven ... 3 K's, KKK.

That's Racist!

On, and another thing:

A young man in town recalled that Mr. Romney confronted him as he smoked marijuana and drank on the beach last summer, demanding that he stop.

The issue appears to be a recurring nuisance for the Romneys. Mr. Quint, who lives on the waterfront near Mr. Romney, said that a police officer had asked him, on a weekend when the candidate was in town, to report any pot smoking on the beach. The officer explained to him that "your neighbors have complained," Mr. Quint recalled. "He was pretty clear that it was the Romneys."


I will never vote for this guy. Not because he is against pot, but because he went to the beach, in San Diego, and asked someone to stop smoking, and got the police involved to search the area. I don't care if it is a public beach, or enforcing the laws on the books. That is not the behavior of a man that respects your private decisions, or limited government, its the behavior of someone who thinks he knows better than you.

FTFA The "general impressions" of vain, blathering idiots like Joe Scarborough and Mark Halperin certainly do count, because someone gave them a TV show, for some reason.

This is how the death of responsible media leads to the destruction of democracy and the creation of entire parties like the GOP based upon fear, bigotry, and lies.

Agreed. Who calls the cops because someone is smoking weed? If it's not in your face or on your property or some shiat... honestly, who farking cares?

They would never run stories about liberals like the ones they run about Romney.

You see, it doesn't matter if they actually do or not, it's whether they would. You just know they hate themselves when they have to write a bad article about a Democrat.

I see too many Fark posters make the same argument, btw. Never actually referring to any factual information or studies but relying on what [hated media outlet] "would" do in response to a hypothetical scandal.

MSNBC does and always will trail FOX because liberals are more apt to seek information from dispassionate sources. I love that conservatives point out MSNBC's ratings in relation to FOX as though it's something to be proud of.

Then, in the same breath as bragging about numbers (or liberal media's lack thereof) you'll turn around and claim that FOX is some plucky upstart alternative to the "mainstream." Pick a story and stick with it.
