Another example of RW media bias. AOL Busted

[Renew Deal]

Have a look at this. I went to AOL this morning and I see "Time to make Big Oil Pay? Republican Proposes New Tax"

So I go into the artcle this is the first paragraph:

"WASHINGTON (April 24) -- Congress should consider a tax on excessive oil company profits, two senators said Sunday, as gasoline prices in some cities have risen above $3 a gallon. Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., said on CNN's Late Edition that President Bush should call for a windfall profits tax on the oil companies' "extreme, obscene profits.""





This is just another example of the RW bias in the corporate media. And this time it's from AOL. I guess they don't like seeing Bush get slaughtered in their polls every day.

Here's the story: http://articles.news.aol.com/news/article.adp?id=20060423134509990005&ncid=NWS00010000000001

2. Man Bites Dog

The other Senator is a Republican (Specter), but he only said it's "Worth considering".

"Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., appearing on the same program, said a windfall profits tax is "something worth considering," as well as legislation targeting consolidation of oil companies."

4. I have the same issues with Huffingtonpost's headline.

On Republican's suddenly concerned about the environement. For one, it's utter bullshit. It's an election year and a scary one for the Repugs. They'll damn near say anything to keep their jobs, especially this year.
No more headlines for these people. They had their chances and they've blown them for five years now. The have nothing but contempt for anyone not part of big business...

5. Isn't that just like them

A dem proposes it and the pukes take the credit. Absolutely disgusting journalism there, if it can be called that.
