White House, Fox News Claim Truce
According to Fishbowl DC, Mediaite, and Hot Air, The White House and Fox News have agreed to end their public feud and call a “truce”.
I’m not sure how Fox News can agree to a truce when all they were guilty of doing was reporting on this White House.
Here’s the real kicker:
One drawback, which even Obama aides concede, is that Fox is using the quarrel with the White House as a public-relations tool to stir up its own support among conservatives and to boost ratings. “They’re still at it,” says a senior Obama aide, who adds that White House officials don’t expect to fire another shot in the battle unless Fox strikes first.
I take that to mean The WH won’t fire another shot unless Fox starts telling the public what’s really going on again. Somehow I don’t think Glenn Beck is in on this truce. I don’t think he’s going to shy away from informing the public when he uncovers yet another Mao-loving Marxist in this administration.
What The White House wants is for Fox News to get in line with the rest of the Obama media and keep quiet. I don’t see that happening and I don’t see this so-called “truce” lasting very long either. This administration can’t handle criticism of any kind. The only way they can pass their destructive legislation is in the dark of night without anyone knowing the details.
Glenn Beck Is Well Protected
This via The NY Post:
Controversial Fox News host Glenn Beck is now travelling with an armed guard. Guests at the other day’s preview of Broadway musical "Memphis" noticed Beck was closely accompanied — even to the men’s room — by a bodyguard with a gun partially concealed under his jacket.
I’m glad to hear my man Glenn is well protected. We need him now more than ever, and you know there’s a lot of people who would love to shut him up — permanently.

Anyone still not watching Glenn Beck is seriously missing out. It’s the most entertaining and informative hour on television.

CNN’s Rick Sanchez Is A Drunk Driving Murderer
Since CNN’s Rick Sanchez likes to go on the air and talk shit about people and promote phony quotes from Rush Limbaugh, let’s look at what kind of guy Rick is…
On Dec. 10, 1990 one Rick Sanchez struck a pedestrian while leaving a Miami Dolphins game highly intoxicated. The man was left paralyzed and Sanchez fled the scene. He returned some two hours later and was subjected to a sobriety test. He blew a .15 — which is not just drunk, but asshole drunk.
Since Rick was a well known reporter in the Miami area, he was helped out by his cop friends and only charged with a DUI. The man who was left paralyzed by Rick’s drunk driving died 5 years later in a nursing home.
The moral of the story here is don’t go on television and smear other people when you’re a drunk driving murderer.

With Obama In Charge, Media Loses Interest In Filming Dead Soldiers
Throughout Bush’s presidency the liberal media howled about censorship and lobbied heavily for the right to film the flag-draped caskets of dead soldiers as they returned home. President Bush was accused of “hiding” the realities of war from the American people.
As soon as Obama took office he promptly lifted the ban on filming as long as the family of the deceased approved it. Since that time, more often than not the families have given the go ahead to film their deceased loved ones coming home — but the media is nowhere to be found.
According to the Washington Examiner, the media showed up in force the first couple times after the ban was lifted, but not so much after that.
When the casket bearing Air Force Tech. Sgt. Phillip Myers, of Hopewell, Va., arrived at Dover the night of April 5 — the first arrival in which press coverage was allowed — there were representatives of 35 media outlets on hand to cover the story. Two days later, when the body of Army Spc. Israel Candelaria Mejias, of San Lorenzo, Puerto Rico, arrived, 17 media outlets were there. (All the figures here were provided by the Mortuary Affairs Operations Center.) On subsequent days in April, there were nearly a dozen press organizations on hand to cover arrivals.
Fast forward to today. On Sept. 2, when the casket bearing the body of Marine Lance Cpl. David Hall, of Elyria, Ohio, arrived at Dover, there was just one news outlet — the Associated Press — there to record it. The situation was pretty much the same when caskets arrived on Sept. 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 22, 23 and 26. There has been no television coverage at all in September.
This proves what most of us always knew about this issue from the very beginning. The media was only interested in photographing dead soldiers when it served to damage President Bush. With Obama now in charge of the war, the media has zero interest in showing the “realities of war” because it would only serve to damage their man. It’s truly despicable.
