The Enemy Of The People.
Colbert King was a columnist for the Washington Post.
In a farewell memo, posted on the Web site of Washington City Paper, King warns the editorial page to re-examine its approach to issues such as Iraq and race and "avoid resorting to sophomoric language when addressing serious matters." He also stated that "editorials simply must not be used to advance one individual's causes or views."
The Media with its "embedded journalists" did not fool me for one nanosecond with their coverage of the Iraq War, and they are not fooling me now. I don't need to go off on the lies, the deaths, the destruction, the crimes ........ The media's shame is that they
didn't report it. If they have taken responsibility for their crappy job, I haven't see it.
When top lawmakers call on the AG to resign on record at a Senate Judiciary Committee meeting and it isn't the top story on the evening news, there is something wrong. They fooled an entire nation into supporting a war based on a lie. They tricked families across the country into sending their best and brightest into combat. They created a climate of fear for those who would not support an administration who repeatedly failed to protect them and who systematically stripped their democratic rights out from under them. Even now, with the truth coming out into the light, the media is still all hat and no cattle.
The MSM deserves to come down. I have believed since the war began that the best way to deal with the media was to simply ignore them. I was wrong. When they will not report death and destruction, lies and deceit, crimes and cover ups, corruption at every level of government, corporations gone wild with blood and war, our constitution gutted ... they are enemies of the people.
Liars. If the media was liberal, it would be just as evil. Who do these people think they are. They're not my father (see Atrios' piece last night.) Fooled US once, shame on them. Now, they must die.
