alert I get for Keith, so I checked it out.
Here, to save a click or two (so they don't get the website visitation), I'll post their list of "librul" reporters. I still have the site up in the background here:
* Dan Rather accepted $20,000 to speak at a 2001 Texas Democratic Party fundraiser, in which his daughter, Robin, headed; Rather later claimed that he didnt know it was a Democratic fundraiser. Rather also would later use his connections with the Texas Democratic Party to smear Bush with fake memos.
* Ted Turner, CNN founder and former president, is probably the original front man for a scheme, as New York Times columnist Frank Rich labeled Armstrong Williams, when Turner pledged one billion dollars to the U.N.
* Ian Williams of the Far Left rag, The Nation and a prominent United Nations Correspondents Association (UNCA) member and past UNCA president, has been on the United Nations payroll, writing articles for the world body and even coaching U.N. officials on how to deal with the press, said Accuracy in Media (AIM)s Cliff Kincaid. Williams wife, Anora Mahmudova, is also currently embroiled in controversy, according to AIM, which broke the story on Feb. 23 that the UNCA may have violated U.S. immigration law by hiring her as an office manager. AIM reported that Mahmudova, whos not a U.S. citizen but a Muslim from Asia, collected more than $15,000 from UNCA before questions arose about her immigration status. The U.N. and its reporters are not above U.S. law, Kincaid said. Williams and his wife are also member of the leftist group Socialist Scholars.
* Linda Fault, the U.N. correspondent for NBC News and MSNBC, recently wrote a pro-U.N. book, An Insiders Guide to the U.N. According to AIM, Fault also writes for Turners U.N. Foundation and Better World Campaign, and even acknowledged their generous financial support of her book. Fault has since refused to disclose how much she made from her pro-U.N. book.
* Lara Jakes Jordan, the Associated Press reporter who intentionally misquoted Republican Sen. Rick Santorums comments about a Texas sodomy case, which later caused a firestorm of protest among the hypocritical leftist media and their partisan Democrats who screamed for Santorums resignation. Ironically, Gannon was one of only a handful of reporters who revealed that Jordans husband was a former Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee official who later managed John Kerrys presidential campaign.
* Matthew Cooper of Time magazine married Clinton adviser Mandy Gunwale in November 1997, and Hillary Clinton even held a baby shower for Gunwale at the White House in July 1998, at the time Cooper was covering presidential politics for Newsweek, Newsmax.com reported. * Christiane Amanpour of CNN married Clinton State Department spokesman Jamie Rubin in August 1998. Though Rubin presumably shared his administration paycheck with his new bride, the financial link was never an issue for the Armstrong Williams posse, Newsmax.com added.
* Rita Braver and Linda Douglas, both CBS News correspondents, covered the Clinton White House. Bravers husband, Robert Barnett, was the Clintons Whitewater lawyer when Braver was assigned to the White House beat in late 1992. In July 1993, Barnett was still up to his eyeballs in the Whitewater scandal, traveling to the White House after Vince Fosters death to collect papers investigators later said had been removed surreptitiously from Fosters office, Newsmax.com reported.
* Thomas Oliphant, a Boston Globe columnist, who, in 1994, was nearly commissioned by senior Clinton administration official Susan Brophy to write favorable columns about two Republican officials if they voted for Clintons crime bill. She said if I voted yes, she would request Oliphant to write something favorable about me, Peter Torkildsen (R-Mass.) told the Boston Herald. I was a little caught off guard.
* George Stephanopoulos, former communications director for Bill Clinton, segued into a cushy gig as ABC News Sunday morning host.
* Sidney Blumenthal, former Washington Post staff writer, who writes for the New Yorker and pens a column for the Far Left e-zine, Salon.com, was Bill Clintons political advisor and still is his right-hand propagandist.
* Jeff Greenfield, CNN news analyst, was once a speechwriter for Democrat Sen. Robert Kennedy, as well as a paid employee of New York Democrat Mayor John Lindsay.
* Bill Moyers, now retired, has been receiving taxpayer funds and soft money from foundations to spread his neo-Marxist propaganda. Moyers also served as former President Lyndon B. Johnsons press secretary.
* Chris Matthews, MSNBC leftist host, once wrote speeches for Jimmy Carter.
* Brian Williams, the new liberal replacement for the equally liberal Tom Brokaw, worked for former President Jimmy Carter.
* Jane Pauley, formerly of NBC, was once an administrative assistant for the Indiana Democratic State Central Committee.
* Tim Russert, host of NBCs Meet the Press, was once a paid employee of New York Democrat Gov. Mario Cuomo and worked for the late New York Democrat Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan.
* David Shipley, a New York Times reporter, wrote speeches for Bill Clinton.
* John Seigenthaler, an NBC anchor/reporter, once worked as an assistant for then-Attorney General Robert Kennedy.
* Ed Schultz, whos called the liberal Rush Limbaugh, admitted on March 2, 2004 to Today Shows Jamie Ganges that he was on the air, thanks to the generosity of the Democratic Party.
Now, notice how many on this list we think are Bush shills. Most of the time it's guilt by ommission - since we know of news and information that they don't report, but the last one, Ed Schultz is laughable. Of COURSE he's biased - he's got a LEFTWING TALK SHOW and doesn't pretend to be a journalist. :eyes: What nuts. The whole article is a lesson in propaganda.
