In recent remarks to an AIM conference, "ObamaNation: A Day of Truth," former Democratic pollster and analyst Pat Caddell said, "I think we're at the most dangerous time in our political history in terms of the balance of power in the role that the media plays in whether or not we maintain a free democracy." Caddell noted that while First Amendment protections were originally provided to the press so they would protect the liberty and freedom of the public from "organized governmental power," they had clearly relinquished the role of impartial news providers.
Nowhere was this more evident than during the tragic death of a U.S. ambassador in Libya that was lied about for nine days, because the press and the administration did not want to admit it was a terrorist attack.
"We've had nine days of lies over what happened because they can't dare say it's a terrorist attack, and the press won't push this," said Caddell. "Yesterday there was not a single piece in The New York Times over the question of Libya. Twenty American embassies, yesterday, are under attack. None of that is on the national news. None of it is being pressed in the papers."
Caddell added that it is one thing for the news to have a biased view, but "It is another thing to specifically decide that you will not tell the American people information they have a right to know."

Brilliant, passionate and 100 per cent accurate.....

[Philip Faustman]

The Current Libya-Gate Cover-Up is Much More Criminal / Evil Than WaterGate! Our National Media (Except Fox News Cable) is Not Telling The American People The Truth! Obama made the choice to Sacrifice 4 Americans then lie and blame a youtube video as a political campaign strategy. He tried to cover-up a Terrorist Attack against America so he could avoid having to say it was a "Terrorist Attack"! The National Media is still silent on this HUGE STORY? The National Media Is The Enemy of The People!

True, the liberal jewish owned media has directed the development (or degeneration) of the American identity. It hasn't betrayed America, though. Rather, it has infiltrated it and corrupted it beyond repair...

[Saint Michael]

The so called main stream media is nothing more then a propaganda machine for the left. They have betrayed the American people and dishonored the 1st Amendment. 

[sssssjjjj1]

listen to the jews going after the 1st amendment. People...if you don't talk about the elephant in the room robbing everybody, hahahaa, they will take it as weakness or that you are a weak sheep. Be a Ram! hahaha These people aren't even bright. They are just banker owned and the bankers will have you killed in a snap.Just open your eyes. When america and Israel do something crappy, which is daily, it's the bankers who benefit, we just pay for it, the media keeps you dumb as hell. ahha

[sssssjjjj1]

this guy wants chaos. He wants us to hear things about american bases being hit....it's probably the rothschilds mossad who hit the camps and blaming it on islam to get the Albert Pikes 3 world wars letter to bring in a jewish masonic world. Written in 1871. google it. This guy is a war monger and wants the u.s. to know about the bases being hit, he probably knows who did it and is mad they did it for nothing. They own the media so this guy is just full of kosher dooky. The entire media

Maybe Ron Paul should have focused on breaking up the media mogul's power rather than trying to break up the federal reserve bank's power. We do need a free and independent press, not a government controlled media.
