Yesterday, my newspaper carrier accidently delivered a copy of the New York Slimes, ah, I mean Times to my doorstep, instead of my usual edition of The Wall Street Journal.
With the controversy surrounding Barack Obama's paster, Reverand Jeremiah Wright being aired on Fox News and Talk Radio on a 24 x 7 basis, I was curious to see how the Times spun the story in their ususal uber-Liberal way. I expected at least to see a postage sized article on page A10,000.
Nope. Not even a single sentence. It was as if the story didn't happen or even exist. No wonder Bill O'Reilly indicated on The O'Reilly Factor that approximately 36% of people polled didn't know about the story.
This story is going to be a test case for the old media versus the new media, and who will ultimately win. Can a collective liberal print and broadcast media effectively squash a hot news story solely becuase they will it? Or instead will new media sources such as Talk Radio, Cable News, and bloggers successfully bring down the likely candidate for the Democratic Party.
Stay tuned boys and girls for our next episode, of "Obama's Fall From Grace".
(And the liberals said that he couldn't be stopped!)
