Tucker Carlson discusses Journolist with Sean Hannity

[exsinor]

It is hilarious that these two talk about honest unbiased journalism--I can't decide whether the Republican Party runs Fox News or vice-versa.

We are clearly seeing the rise of fascism in America. This so-called journalists are nothing but propagandists for Obama's fascist state. Obama should be removed from office immediately and a special election called in 2010.  The future of our Republic is at stake.

Tucker Carlson is just desperate to stay on cos he's a LOOOOSER. XD HAHAHAHA!!!

@BarthBunzel

Exactly!

[athews1976]

This is absurd. They're talking about unscrupulous behavior that everyone knows that they themselves do. These people are hopeless. They just cant seem to understand that so many people even their own know that they do and have done the things that they're accusing liberals of.

@athews1976

Do you even understand the implications of what was done on JournoList?

Private emails between left wing journalists, teachers, and people who basically thrust Obama into the White House and spun stories to not sound as bad, or keep them out of the news ENTIRELY.

Sickening.

Not liberal journalists acting as "political hacks", it's called being PROPAGANDISTS, don't be afraid to use that word when they are the ones smearing everyone as racists.

No, gov't shouldn't get involved, at all.

And the problem wasn't that the Journolist members had bad ideas. The problem was that they were supposedly news reporters (not opinion commentators) providing the public with objective facts. Secondly, they colluded to silence the opposition by attacking them personally, with baseless accusations of what we all know is like plutonium in America 2010: racism. These are top-level reporters in America who did this, to affect an election

Agreed, but these guys are upfront about it. And FAUX is only one channel of how many? Just one.

[sunflowergrl1968]

@BarthBunzel I beg to differ sir

[DonTruman]

Scary stuff. Most of our nation's journalists aren't journalists. They're propagandists for their political views, and they actively, intentionally try to sway public opinion."

Compare too the Jayson Blair incident. There was just too much acquiescence on the part of NY Times editors to dismiss it as one bad apple. The guy was promoted to national news, even though there were red flags all over the place. Blair simply fit in well with that culture (politically) and so he was given a pass.
