Obama Official: We Love MSNBC
We all knew that the White House and MSNBC love each other, but it is kind of Kareem Dale, special assistant to the president for arts and culture and a key White House advisor on disability policy, to confirm the love affair.
Most troubling about this relationship is that both sides are quite honest about it and do not feel any need to hide it. This is a result of the belief prominent in certain circles today that since journalists can never be truly, 100% objective, they can be as subjective and biased as they please.
Writing for the LAT’s blog, Andrew Malcolm points out that major networks and newspapers are not innocent either. They treat the new president different than his predecessor.
Where the White House press corps sat and nodded when George W. Bush walked into the room, they stand up out of respect when Obama approaches them. Why is that? Simple. They did not respect Bush, but they do respect Obama.
Watch the video of the ‘love affair’:
And the video of the White House reporters treating Obama differently:

Commenters who repeatedly or egregiously violate these standards or who attempt to argue
publicly with editors regarding the comments policy may be banned from commenting further.
(1) Comments should address the substantive content of the post. Comments that repeatedly
or blatantly misrepresent the content of the post or of others' comments are not welcome. Comments that
respond to something other than which the contributor or commenter may have said are irrelevant and should
not be posted.

(3) Comments should not personally attack the character, personal integrity, or professional
reputation of any PoliGazette contributor or of other commenters.

the commenter's own arguments. Link spam, trackback spam, and propaganda spam will be instantly deleted.
(5) Public figures are considered open to all substantive criticism of their policies and statements.
Comments that present objectively false factual information about public figures (i.e. "Obama is a Muslim") or
that attack public figures by attacking their families are not welcome. Comments that merely repeat

Questions or challenges to these policies or their application should be directed to the editors

From where in Bush’s eight-year presidency was that video?
MSM.
Mindless
Sniveling
Morons.
Rather they be for or against a certain party. They have lost the calling to which they were once endowed.
Facts.
Now they are nothing more then empowered PACS given free reign to go where their bosses tell them to go and to spout whatever lies they wish to spout that day.
THE MSM in my mind is dead. They are no longer Mainstream. Then are Mindless.
