Make no mistake: MSM's frenzy over Palin emails is misogyny

Dear fellow journalists: if the Palin emails put egg on our faces by showing that we distorted an engaged, competent and thoughtful Governor into a ignorant spiteful Bit$ch out of our utter hatred for female power--or the knowledge that to get ahead in male-dominated journalism we gals had better straddle the big bosses pony by enabling misogyny towards Palin--then here's what to do: say 'oh well, she's just a washed up divisive bit&ch now and that she's shown herself unable to handle media pressure.' For an example of how to use this gambit read the below excerpt of my story on Politico today. And never forget the that we must stop all Bit%ches who will to power and that talking about how good Palin once was is better by far than talking about how bad Obama is now. Warm regards,
Molly @ Politico

Once, there was a different Sarah Palin.

She was hands-on and averse to partisan politics. She championed openness in government and had normal relations with the media. She was a little starstruck by her interactions with national politicians but unafraid to do battle with the chief executives of the world’s largest oil companies.

The emails from her governorship, released Friday, brought back the memory of a long-lost Palin: the popular, charismatic, competent woman of the people.

This was the vice presidential candidate John McCain’s team thought they were getting, before her darker tendencies — defensiveness, thin skin, grudge-keeping — hardened into tics.

Make no mistake kids, media does not suffer from Palin Derangement Syndrome in a vaccum; media suffers from misgyny period. The simply will not allow a female candidate to be elected potus.

There are about a million and twenty examples of the innane gottch bitch sexist journalism out there to site when it comes to Palin and Hillary. Bimbo or Bitch works every time.

Palin gives some perspective on Paul Revere's ride --educating me for one who did not know that the Brits wanted colonists guns that night--and the media go apeshit and plays sexism to say she's a bimbo when in fact she got it right, but....where is the coverage on Obama...errrmmm the potus, hello...who is outrightly lying to Americans daily about very big and currently important items such as the economy or our health care or immigration of shit you name it.

Here is nice item from Matt Welch of Reason posted on CNN that should grab you in the gut as you wonder why political journalism is in the crapper and getting flushed:

When is this journalistic scrutiny going to be applied to politicians who wield actual power?

For instance, one might nominate the president of the United States for such attention. On Saturday, June 4, in his weekly radio address, Barack Obama did what he has consistently done since taking the oath of office: fudged reality to make his policies sound better.

In a premature victory lap over his controversial bailout of Detroit automakers, the president made the highly dubious assertion that not taking over Chrysler and General Motors would have "put a million people out of work," a claim resting on the notion that "bankruptcy" equals "liquidation," which it does not.

He said, both presumptively and inaccurately, that "we're making sure America can out-build, out-innovate, and out-compete the rest of the world." And he gave the distinct -- and distinctly false -- impression that Chrysler has repaid every dime of what it owes American taxpayers, mostly by saying "Chrysler has repaid every dime and more of what it owes American taxpayers for their support during my presidency -- and it repaid that money six years ahead of schedule."

Glenn Kessler, who writes "The Fact Checker" blog for the Washington Post website, described Obama's address as "one of the most misleading collections of assertions we have seen in a short presidential speech. Virtually every claim by the president regarding the auto industry needs an asterisk."

A president misleading the public on one of his most crucial policies at a time when Americans are increasingly anxious about the economy sounds kind of newsworthy, no?

I of course would add to this our big question : why did the media not dig deep into Obama's overseas donor fraud of 2008 now that it is sure to happen again.

One might think that stealing an election --or trying to via fraud-- is worthy of journalistic endeavor. But today, MSM is driven by hated not objective delivery of information.

The media is in a death match with it's own relevance and asking the public to dig dirt on a private citizen while failing to hold our sitting president accountable for his ..how should we say it..misleadings...is such a thorough embarrassment.

democracy = having a media

democracy = having a media willing to examine all candidates and elected officials equally. there is strong case to be made that ours is no longer a democracy based on the actions of a Stalinist media machine that sets out with malice aforethought to persecute one individual

You think.
