Hey, I'm gonna be fully honest here.

When the Bias is towards my direction, I say the news is perfectly neutral and objective.

When the bias is against me, I will scream that it is racist, agiest, sexist, biased, etc.

So basically, it's (as always) all the Democrats fault?

Is there any subject...any at all...that you cannot politicise?
Just wondering.

You mean news stories like your secret antarctic telescope, the UN black helicopters ready for invading and taking your guns, the hidden killer planet that is going to eat us, FEMA death camps and of course the secret army of nazi dentists.
only you could make such a complaint while starting a topic with some example of pure rubbish you had already posted..... why oh why are the lamestream media not reporting a nonsense story that a loony tunes "news" source picked up 5 years afterthe rest of the media covered it

Have you ever thought of perhaps reading the news instead of listening to some loony telling you that the media isn't covering the news?

Can you fix your link, gun nut weekly doesn't carry enough stories about aliens but instead has a focus on prepping for apocalypso.

By the looks of it no,,, basically it's our fault,,, I'm sick of people, thinking they can destroy my country by political manuering and, with criminal activity and the people that support it,,, http://www.theblaze.com/stories/glen...tterly-failed/ ...So how many people have to die to get your attention...?????? So if the government has blood on its hands with fast and furious,, then so does the mainstream media that doesn't want to report on it...A free people starts with a free press...Tribesman I would love to be there to see the supprised look on your face when they drag you out to the street and tell that, that your stuff ain't yours anymore..

Yubba, it is one thing to be informed. It is another when the information you are being fed daily is constantly in the negative. The news is constantly in the negative. Other than the weatherman, that wants you to hear nothing but sunny skies, the news will report gloom and doom. It sells. Tune into something else for awhile. Honestly, watching and reading the news all day is not healthy. I eventually stopped reading the newspaper. It was getting me depressed. I catch a little of the local news. Read a few spots on the internet. I then go out and enjoy the day.

I think it goes beyond that, "the news" yubba gets fed isn't just negative it is crazy nonsense.

I would tend to agree. If a guy named Jim Jones can have an entire village of followers drink the Kool-aid I can safely assume people will believe anything no matter the subject. Just keep drilling it into their head.

The biggest and boldest racists we have these days reside in the White House.

The problem comes when Yubba takes things like Glenn Beck as being news...Glenn Beck is not news, Glenn Beck is a vitriolic mouthpiece for the far right who couldn't be unbiased if his life depended on it.

Very true, all anyone needs to do is READ Obama's first book "Dreams From My Father", analyze his racist actions in the beer summit fiasco, or dealing with black panthers, his rhetoric etc. Read Michelle Obama's college thesis.Look at who they associate with etc, Always something about race for these people...

Bubbles you wouldn't recognise the truth if it came with a letter of introduction.
But its funny to see you try that line after publicly confirming that you are a racist
Well done keep it up

I remember thinking at the time which one of us in their shoes wouldn't have told their driver to loose those jerks chasing them. That and a slippery patch of road would have been all it took. Yeah i'd say the paparazzi were at very least a contributing factor.
